ANNE OF THE ISLAND (CHAP 23) PAUL CANNOT FIND THE ROCK PEOPLE & (CHAP 24) ENTER JONAS
In this installment of Anne of the Island by L. M. Montgomery, covering "Paul Cannot Find the Rock People" and "Enter Jonas," Anne Shirley attempts to enjoy her summer vacation in Avonlea, yet is haunted by a queer, lonely ache in her heart. As she shares delightful rambles with the kindred spirits at Echo Lodge, Anne witnesses her friend Paul discover the painful truth that he must pay the penalty of growing-up when his beloved “Rock People” vanish from the shore. Adding complexity to the summer, a letter from Phil introduces Jonas Blake, a new young man who stirs up confusion about their preconceived notions of love and character.
