L. M. Montgomery

Lucy Maud Montgomery knew from a very early age that she wanted to be a writer. Her vivid imagination and sensitivity to people less fortunate than she-especially children-made her a best-selling author in her time. Beset by personal misfortune and tragedy for most of her life, Montgomery recreated many of her own experiences in her characters, plots, and settings. Today, nearly one hundred years after she published her first "juvenile," Montgomery's books and stories continue to enthrall young readers, and her books for children are considered classics.
