The young Rilla will need all her strength for the dark days ahead, as her coming of age will be in the midst of World War I. Her brothers and sweetheart will go to war, and not all of them will come back. Her sisters will become nurses, but Rilla herself is too young. What can she do back home to support the war effort? How can she be involved in doing good in her own backyard? What difference can one person’s ‘keeping the faith’ make in the titanic struggle of world events? LM Montgomery, in this final installment of the Anne of Green Gables books, takes us through the terror, the suspense and the sacrifices of ‘The Great War’ as told through the eyes of Rilla. Of course, as in any girl’s diary, there are also chronicled the romances of Miranda, Gertrude, Mary and Rilla herself. At the same time, the small details of everyday life lighten the drama with humorous stories of the antics of the Ingleside cat, the putting on of a wedding with one day’s notice and ‘that prayer meeting’ which will forever go down in the local lore of little Glen St Mary! - Summary by Beth Thomas Cast: Narrated by Esther ben Simonides Rilla Blythe: Rachel Susan Baker: Beth Thomas Mrs. Anne Blythe: Adele de Pignerolles Dr. Gilbert Blythe: Peter Yearsley Miss Gertrude Oliver: Kristin Gjerløw Walter Blythe: Michael Landu Jem Blythe: Mike Harris Cousin Sophia: Sonia Mary Vance: Jennifer Fournier Kenneth Ford: Dillon McFarlane Mr. John Meredith/Mr. Norman Douglas: John Burlinson Irene Howard: Anna Vince Other characters voiced by: Etel Buss, Mark Chulsky, Michele Eaton, Kathrine Engan, Gaby, Rupert Holliday, Lydia, Diana Majlinger, MaryAnn, Hannah Mary, David Lawrence, Tomas Peter, David Purdy, Roohi, Saffie, Shakira Searle, K.

The young Rilla will need all her strength for the dark days ahead, as her coming of age will be in the midst of World War I. Her brothers and sweetheart will go to war, and not all of them will come back. Her sisters will become nurses, but Rilla herself is too young. What can she do back home to support the war effort? How can she be involved in doing good in her own backyard? What difference can one person’s ‘keeping the faith’ make in the titanic struggle of world events? LM Montgomery, in this final installment of the Anne of Green Gables books, takes us through the terror, the suspense and the sacrifices of ‘The Great War’ as told through the eyes of Rilla. Of course, as in any girl’s diary, there are also chronicled the romances of Miranda, Gertrude, Mary and Rilla herself. At the same time, the small details of everyday life lighten the drama with humorous stories of the antics of the Ingleside cat, the putting on of a wedding with one day’s notice and ‘that prayer meeting’ which will forever go down in the local lore of little Glen St Mary! - Summary by Beth Thomas Cast: Narrated by Esther ben Simonides Rilla Blythe: Rachel Susan Baker: Beth Thomas Mrs. Anne Blythe: Adele de Pignerolles Dr. Gilbert Blythe: Peter Yearsley Miss Gertrude Oliver: Kristin Gjerløw Walter Blythe: Michael Landu Jem Blythe: Mike Harris Cousin Sophia: Sonia Mary Vance: Jennifer Fournier Kenneth Ford: Dillon McFarlane Mr. John Meredith/Mr. Norman Douglas: John Burlinson Irene Howard: Anna Vince Other characters voiced by: Etel Buss, Mark Chulsky, Michele Eaton, Kathrine Engan, Gaby, Rupert Holliday, Lydia, Diana Majlinger, MaryAnn, Hannah Mary, David Lawrence, Tomas Peter, David Purdy, Roohi, Saffie, Shakira Searle, K.
