Tonight, we\u2019ll read the eighth chapter to \u201cAnne of Green Gables\u201d the classic 1908 novel by Lucy Maud Montgomery. This chapter is titled \u201cAnne\u2019s Bringing Up is Begun\u201d.\n\nIn the last episode, Marilla begins her program of moral and social education for Anne at bedtime. Anne expresses a distaste for God due to the insult of purposely giving her red hair. Marilla encourages Anne to create her own spontaneous prayer. Anne\u2019s prayer is full of flowery speech, regarding her hopes for Green Gables to become her home, and to become pretty when she grows up. She ends the prayer by saying, \u201cYours respectfully, Anne Shirley.\u201d Marilla resolves to send Anne to Sunday school as soon as possible.\n\u2014 read by 'N' \u2014\nSign up for Snoozecast+ to get expanded, ad-free access by going to\xa0snoozecast.com/plus!\nLearn more about your ad choices.
