Emily of New Moon (Review)
Sheppard, Philippa. “Emily Of New Moon (Review)”. Quill & Quire 64.3 (1998): 74. Print.
[Emily] of New Moon is adapted by [Priscilla Galloway], author of three novels for Annick's Tales of Ancient Lands series. Emily of New Moon is a more satisfying read than Anne of Green Gables; while proportionally no longer, it gives the impression of being fuller. Galloway does not use any shorthand with the characters' lives. She shows the characters' growth by relaying one incident in fulfilling detail rather than summarizing broad external changes. Galloway seems to have conserved more passages revealing the inner life of the heroine than [Shelley Tanaka]. This may, however, merely reflect the fact that Emily is a more introspective character than [Anne], less often embroiled in lighthearted high jinks., Source type: Electronic(1), http://rlproxy.upei.ca/login?url=http://search.proquest.com/?url=http://search.proquest.com/docview/235634509?accountid=14670
