Beschreibung

From the author of Anne of Green Gables, this is the delightful story of Jane Victoria Stuart, a young girl leading an unsatisfied life in Toronto, Ontario, where she lives with her mother, aunt, and cranky old grandma.
Jane has always believed her father to be dead, but her world is turned upside down when she discovers that he is, in fact, alive and residing on Prince Edward Island. This revelation sets Jane on a journey of self-discovery as she sets off to spend a summer with him at Lantern Hill. She finds herself in a world vastly different from the one she has known. Surrounded by the island's natural beauty and the warmth of her father's love, Jane experiences a happiness she never thought possible. The summer at Lantern Hill becomes a magical time of personal growth, joy, and newfound freedom.
Jane of Lantern Hill is a heartwarming tale of family, discovery, and the enduring bond between a father and daughter. Lucy Maud Montgomery's masterful storytelling and richly drawn characters bring this enchanting story to life, making it a cherished addition to her beloved works.

Portrait

Lucy Maud Montgomery (1874 - 1942) was born on Prince Edward Island, a province of Canada. Young Maud went to live with her maternal grandparents, a stern Presbyterian couple whose rambling farm was the inspiration for "Green Gables." Although trained as a teacher, she became known for a series of young adult novels beginning with Anne of Green Gables, first published in 1908.
Frank Holtzer has been called "an international adventurer." As an experienced journalist, he's covered poverty in Port-au-Prince, Oktoberfest beer bashes in Munich, the swinging Carnaby Street scene in London, independence in the Bahamas, and the drug trade in Mexico. He's known for his erotic short stories.
