Summary: A delight for the senses, imagination, and heart
Comment: Sara Stanley, better known as the Story Girl for her charming and enchanting gift for storytelling, is Montgomery's finest and most engaging heroines next to Anne. She is magical, imaginative, but also practical, smart, and solid. She is someone you want for a best friend. Sara lives in the tiny town of Carlisle and the story begins with two cousins coming from the big city of Toronto to stay with relatives. Sara and her gang belong to the King Family, one of the finest, oldest families in town. THe family's romances, tragedies, and comedies are featured often in Sara's tales. The book has flow, interest, and is a pure pleasure to read. I often reread it numerous times throughout the year. Be sure to pick up "THe Golden Road", the sequel (L.M. is at her best when she writes sequels!). And, I own a first edition of this book!

Summary: L.M. Montgomery IS The Story Girl
Comment: It's no wonder that the lady who has gifted us with the Anne of Green Gables series created a character referred to as The Story Girl, one who could transport her audience to a far-away, magical place through the gift of storytelling.
As a huge fan of Anne of Green Gables, discovering that The Story Girl was Lucy Maude Montgomery's personal favorite of the works she had written, I anxiously began The Story Girl. It is the charming story of Sara Stanley, the Story Girl, who lives in Carlisle, with her cousins and the hired boy Peter. Told from the perspective of Beverly King, who has moved to Carlisle with his pudgy brother Felix, while their widowed father is working in a foreign land, Beverly and Felix become enchanted with their new life, hanging out with The Story Girl, beautiful cousin Felicity, sweet, endearing cousin Cecily, practical cousin Dan, and the hired boy Peter.
Though Peter is not family, his hard-working, considerate, loyal personality make the rest of the cousins slowly
but surely come to accept him as part of the group. One can't help but wonder if L.M. Montgomery IS the real life Story Girl, one who is well known in Carlisle for being the most magnificent storyteller around. Her magical gift of telling stories captivates her audience, both adults and children. Her stories combined with all sorts of amusing antics the children get into compromise the heart of this novel. The kids will have you in stitches, as they come up with a contest to see who can deliver the best preacher's sermon and the lengths they will go to for coming up with schemes to see who can have the best, most vivid dreams. As always, Montgomery is able to deliver a timeless classic that is wholesome, yet just as powerfully moving
and entertaining nearly a century later. It is written that Montgomery was quite sad to say goodbye to these characters as she completed the last page, and it is no wonder that the reader is left feeling quite the same way. Fortunately, the stories go on in the sequel, The Golden Road.
