Excuse me!!!???????

Today while walking through the book section of my local Costco I came across this book.



I guess I'm kind of saddened that "Anne" has fallen prey to just another marketing scheme. After I did some online research I came across this website celebrating "100 Years of Anne". I think for now I will stay closed minded and skip the prequel and celebrate in my own way by rereading the whole series.

A Little Fun!
