Lucy Maud Montgomery - Rainbow Valley (Book 7)

SYNOPSIS

Anne Shirley has been married to Gilbert Blythe for 15 years, and is now the mother of six mischievous children. These boys and girls discover a hiding place, and name it Rainbow Valley. What they don't imagine is that their enchanted world would be invaded by a strange family, the Meredith clan, from the new Presbyterian pastor who had just moved into the rectory in nearby Ingleside. With two sons and two daughters, and an old aunt, this exotic group will create something to talk about in the small village of Glen St. Mary.

But the surprises don't end there: soon a runaway orphan girl named Mary Vance is found in an old barn. The pastor's children and the runaway orphan join Anne's children in their private hideout, to carry out their plans to save Mary from the orphanage and live the most unusual adventures. In the midst of all this, the lonely shepherd needs to find a wife, and a pet rooster runs the risk of ending up in the pot.
