The flowers are blooming, the food is fabulous, but more on that later! I thought I should post a list of the authors coming to Book Expo Canada so that anyone planning on attending the show can time their visit correctly to the H.B. Fenn Booth (booth #705).

am very excited about the Looking for Anne/ Anne of Green gables...enough to pull my own red braids....
have you had a look/ read of it?
I have read it and it is very good. Lucy Maude Montgomery was a avid journal writer but her journals don't cover the creation of the character of Anne. Creating a character so complex and endearing would have been a time consuming process, but if you were to read Maude's journals, it would have appeared the character sprung fully formed into her mind. Maude was also very critical of her own writing, and destroyed/re-wrote journals she didn't want published after her death. So, in order to figure out the inspiration for Anne, the Irene Gammel delved into Maude's life, examining the people she knew, the events of the time, journals in which she published articles, books she read (eg. Trilby) in order to provide insight into her creative process. It is fascinating stuff, and really makes you want to go back and re-read the entire Anne series!
Hi Rosalyn - just about to buy my Looking for Anne - but I noticed on Amazon Canada that there are two titles, same author, slightly different titles and covers, do you know if they are the same book?
