There are many ways to help protect the natural resources in LM Montgomery's
home province and location of her stories: Prince Edward Island. One opportunity is with the Island Nature Trust and the Trees in Trust Program at www.treesintrust.com. "Trees In Trust enables you to quickly
and easily dedicate a piece of forest to give as a gift, as a memorial or to reduce your carbon footprint. You
don't own the trees, but they are held in your name forever by a not-for-profit charitable land trust which protects the woodland
in perpetuity."

are the creators of the musical who have shared their entire creative process at the website: http://www.ninelivesoflmm.com/
The books I read most as a child were by Lucy Maud Montgomery,
who’s best known for her Anne of Green Gables stories, but I also liked Emily of New Moon. Emily was
an only child, as I was. Emily lived on an island, as did I. Although Manhattan Island and Prince Edward Island are not very
much alike, they are still islands. Emily’s father was dying of bad lungs, and so was mine. Emily had some dreadful
relative, and so did I. She had a hard time in school, and she also understood that there’s more to life than just the
things that can be explained by encyclopedias and facts. Facts alone are not adequate. I love Emily.
Our friends, Jack and Linda Hutton, have been honored by their
community for their hard work in sharing the history of Bala, Ontario and the life of L.M. Montgomery. We applaud their
devotion and artistry!
