Pat of Silver Bush (1933)
By L.M. Montgomery
Toronto: McClelland & Stewart; New York: Frederick A. Stokes, 1933
Synopsis
Patricia Gardiner loved Silver Bush more than anything else in the world. She was born and raised in the beautiful old-fashioned house on Prince Edward Island, “where things always seemed the same” and good things never changed. But things do change at Silver Bush—from her first day at school to the arrival of her new baby sister, from her aunt’s joyous wedding to her own first romance. Through it all, Pat shares her experiences with her beloved friends and discovers the one thing that truly never changes: the beauty and peace she will always find at Silver Bush—the house that remembers her whole life.
