The Story Girl
The Story Girl, published in 1911, is narrated by Beverley King, who looks back on the summer he and his younger brother Felix spent with their cousins on the old family farm in Carlisle, Prince Edward Island. The children's days are ruled by Sara Stanley, the Story Girl, whose voice can make any tale live, and her stories of family legends, the orchard, a proud princess's wedding veil, a ghostly bell and how kissing was discovered are woven through their own adventures: a dread prophecy of Judgment Day, a magic seed, a poisonous berry scare and the hired boy Peter's first visit to church. L. M. Montgomery based the farm on the Prince Edward Island of her own childhood. The full text is available to read online in your browser on Vinteuil, and the first chapter is free.
