Anne of Green Gables

By Lucy Maud Montgomery

Ultra-Condensed by Samuel Stoddard

(Matthew and Marilla Cuthbert send for an orphan boy to help out at Green Gables.)

Anne Shirley

I'm here.

Marilla Cuthbert

Anne Shirley, you are not a boy. Go back to the orphanage.

Anne Shirley

If I work really hard, stay out of trouble, enrich your lives with my buoyant spirit, rescue you from the doldrums of your pragmatic ways, and touch the hearts of the townsfolk...then can I stay?

Marilla Cuthbert

Well, ok.

(Anne does all these things except stay out of trouble.)
