Anne's House of Dreams

Product Description

Anne's own true love, Gilbert Blythe, is finally a doctor, and in the sunshine of the old orchard, among their dearest friends, they are about to speak their vows.

A new life means new problems to solve, new surprises. Anne and Gilbert will make new friends and neighbors: Captain Jim, the lighthouse attendant, with his sad stories of the sea; Miss Cornelia Bryant, the lady who speaks from the heart - and speaks her mind; and the tragically beautiful Leslie Moore, into whose dark life Anne shines a brilliant light.

Review

"Dan's book provides a cogent set of building blocks for becoming an effective leader. If you master his Art of the Possible, your desired outcome for any action or activity you pursue will not only be possible, but probable." -- Brent Armstrong, EVP, Performance Results Corporation

"The Art of the Possible: Create an Organization with No Limitations provides the reader a proven primer for success. This isn't your ordinary business tome; it is a profound statement of what is necessary to build and sustain a world class organization. Read it, follow it - it works" -- Edward V. Garlich, Jr., Founder/Senior Managing Director, Washington Research Group

"Dan Jacobs' book is a treasure trove of insights, concepts and ideas that every aspiring manager should come to understand, appreciate and practice. The book is laced with lessons and experiences articulated by a remarkable array of corporate, government, sport leaders and even philosophers. The only possible weakness of this terrific text is that the reader cannot enjoy seeing and hearing Dan's persuasive, personable and powerful presentation of the fundamental and essential insights and suggestions presented in this book. It is a must read." --Timothy J. Waters, Partner at McDermott Will & Emery

Anne’s House of Dreams

IN THE GARRET OF GREEN GABLES

Thanks be, I’m done with geometry, learning or teaching it,” said Anne Shirley, a trifle vindictively, as she thumped a somewhat battered volume of Euclid into a big chest of books, banged the lid in triumph, and sat down upon it, looking at Diana Wright across the Green Gables garret, with gray eyes that were like a morning sky.

The garret was a shadowy, suggestive, delightful place, as all garrets should be. Through the open window, by which A
