.Further Chronicles Of Avonlea
City Travel Guides > Books > Canada
by: L.M. Montgomery

March 01, 1987
I would recommend giving this volume a miss, if only to avoid reading the embarrassingly racist closing story, "Tannis Of The Flats", and being rudely reminded of an unsavory side that exists to some of our fondly idealized images of the past as filtered through the Anne series. Even without that, however, none of these tales are very good (though some of the light-hearted ones, like "Aunt Cynthia's Persian Cat" are kind of fun); the melodramatic ones are often downright wretched. And, as with the first CHRONICLES, Anne appears only briefly.

.If you're not from the prairie--
City Travel Guides > Books > Canada
by: David & Ripplinger, Henry Bouchard

July 21, 1999
I found this book by accident and it caught my eye since I grew up in Nebraska. I bought it for Christmas presents and read it to my grandchildren on tape so they could hear Grandma telling them about her childhood which was so different from their own. This has been a main stay present for everyone in my family!

.The Day the World Came to Town: 9/11 in Gander, Newfoundland
City Travel Guides > Books > Canada
by: Jim DeFede

August 07, 2003
With all the horrors that took place on September 11th, this book shows the good that took place as well. Some parts are even laugh-out-loud funny - I drew several strange looks from my husband whenever I chuckled - who knew one could be reading a book about 9/11 and laughing? I grew up in Newfoundland myself and know first hand the kind of people who live there. Newfies are a shining example to the rest of the world how one does not need materialistic wealth in order to be generous - just a kind and loving heart. This is a truly amazing story that everyone should read, if only to be reminded of the goodness that people are capable of in even the darkest hours.

Now I wish Defede would write a sequel - since it has been five years since this ... Read More:
