Emily of New Moon

When Emily Starr becomes an orphan, she also becomes a problem for her clan.

One of them must give this ten-year-old a home — but Emily, with her quick tongue, her lively imagination, and her decidedly imperfect conduct, is more than most of them think they can handle.

There is nothing for it but to draw lots!

So it is that Emily comes to live at New Moon, bringing with her not only a talent for mischief, but also so much life and love and laughter that even her harsh Aunt Elizabeth begins to think that the day she ‘won’ Emily in a lottery was one of the luckiest days of her life.
