Ses brillantes études derrière elle et désormais fiancée, Anne Shirley se voit confier la direction du lycée de Summerside sur l'Ile-du-Prince-Edouard, une bourgade d'apparence paisible mais qui va lui réserver bien des surprises : que ce soit Winds Willows, la pension ou elle va vivre pendant trois ans, sa féerique petite voisine, sa collègue désabusée, ou ses élèves, aussi touchants qu'exaspérants. Avec un humour ciselé, des envolées lyriques et nostalgiques, ce nouveau volume plonge datas l'esprit d'Anne et dessine le portrait d'une jeune femme tout en nuances : généreuse et directe, mais surtout indépendante.
