Published in 1908, Anne of Green Gables is a children's novel by Canadian author Lucy Maud Montgomery. Set in the fictional town of Avonlea on Prince Edward Island, Canada in the late 19th century, the novel relates the adventures of an 11-year-old orphan girl named Anne Shirley who is mistakenly sent to two middle-aged siblings, Matthew and Marilla Cuthbert, who were expecting to adopt a boy to help them on their farm at Green Gables.

This Dyslexia Friendly Edition uses a special 12pt font typeface called OpenDyslexic, which has been developed to address some of the common issues that dyslexics have when reading a typical typeface. Letters are designed with heavy weighted bottoms to indicate direction, which aids in recognizing the correct letter orientation. Even people that do not suffer from dyslexia find OpenDyslexic easier to read, thanks, in part, to the wider letter spacing the typeface offers. This is not a cure for dyslexia.
