Okay, so there's these two people- a man and a woman. The year is in the 1900s I believe.
The man is supposed to go to the train station to pick up an orphan boy who will come live with them to do chores. However, it is a
girl. This girl, named Anne, talks a lot and have a lot of imagination. At first the woman won't accept her. The man, Matthew does.
Anne is finally accepted into Green Gables. She becomes friends with Dianne.
Anne is quite smart and at Sunday school, answers every question correctly, while answering
all the questions.
She and her classmates were to take an exam to pass into the Queen's Academy. The best would earn a scholarship and go to college, along with others that pass.
Well, there's this boy Gilbert. He's very handsome and the girls love him ^^ He's smart too. He and Anne and the others girls and boy pass (with Anne and Gilbert as the top (they tied))
Well, then Matthew receives mail and finds out that he has lost everything ($). He is horrified and dies

so sad!!
Anne, devastated, decided not to go to college.
The end

I didn't explain everything because it's hard to remember every detail.
