Anne of Green Gables by L.M. MontgomeryMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
I always value the things I learn from the books I've read and with this particular book, I have learned one very important thing and that is having a wide SCOPE OF IMAGINATION.
Today, our world is set in a very swift pace that people can no longer enjoy the luxury of imagination. It is sad that people see things merely as they are. But what saddens me more is that children nowadays seem to lack that wide "scope of imagination" because technology deprives them of it. I no longer see children playing "bahay-bahayan" which during my childhood made me imagine a lot of things. I used to go out with my friends and scout the neighborhood for wild fruits and then pretend to buy and/or sell them using candy wrappers as money. :D I miss my childhood. And I feel so lucky that I was able to taste and enjoy a rich childhood.
Anne of Green Gables is certainly the best children's book I've read.
