This semester wound up being a lot more than I expected and I didn’t get many of these in. But! I intend to do the last 3! Today, I wandered down to the beach with Anne.
Anne can wander along the road and see the ocean near where she lives–it is an island, after all.
Sometimes she climbs trees along the road. Do I know how precarious this was? Absolutely. Does she? She is figuring that out right now.
She went down to the beach with some friends. She was under some strict instructions not to get in or near the water for fear of ruining her dress, since she doesn’t have a swimsuit. But luckily for her…
Marilla never specified anything about climbing on rocks pretending to be a princess forced into an isolated tower.
Image of Anne being proud of herself for climbing the rock about 30 seconds before she spins excitedly and topples off.
And bonus:
Imagining she is a tragic young widow always watching the sea and wondering if her love shall return.
Liane and Casey love to hang out in their room and read! When Casey (pictured right) moved in with her cousin in Lethbridge, Alberta, she had to leave many of her possessions behind. She could only bring two books, so she chose her very favourites, Pollyanna, and Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm. Luckily, Liane had many to share. She loves to read adventure novels!
Here is a close up of the books. Doll sized books are a very quick craft, so I made several! I found covers of the books I wanted online, printed them out, and glued them to cardboard from a cereal box. I painted the cardboard to match using acrylic paint, then glued in recycled paper for pages. I also made schoolbooks, but I’ll show those in a later post about their school supplies.
This one is my favourite, and the cover is so detailed!
