Anne of Green Gables Chapter 2 Matthew Cuthbert is Surprised

Here the reader meets Matthew and Anne. The introductions continue and the tone adjusts slightly to suit this other pair. It s one of innocence on both sides as Matthew is painfully shy but charmed, and Anne beams with boundless enthusiasm for the scope of imagination afforded to her by the dire circumstances that brought her to Avonlea, and the natural wonder that is the island town.
