L. M. Montgomery

L.M. (Lucy Maud) Montgomery was a Canadian author best known for her Anne of Green Gables series.

Works by L.M. Montgomery with their own pages:

 * Anne of Green Gables
 * The Blue Castle
 * Emily of New Moon
 * Jane of Lantern Hill
 * A Tangled Web

Tropes found in other works:

 * Actually, That's My Assistant
 * Children Are Innocent / Children Are Special: Most prominently found in Magic For Marigold.
 * Cute Mute: Kilmeny, from Kilmeny of the Orchard, has been secluded and sheltered for all of her life, and retains a childlike simplicity.
 * Feminine Women Can Cook: Almost all of her heroines have some talent at housekeeping and cooking. Justified, as they are all of a social class and era when cooking would be in a woman's basic skill set.
 * Jane in particular takes to cooking like a duck to water, feeding both herself and her father, even though she was never allowed to cook before. She does prudently buy a cookbook first, and donuts defeat her.
 * Green-Eyed Monster: Montgomery frequently revisits the character of the widowed mother who is fanatically attached to her only begotten son, and fiercely jealous of any romantic attachments in his life.
 * Growing Up Sucks: This trope hits Marigold Lesley hardest.
 * The Matchmaker: "The Education Of Betty"
 * Matchmaker Crush: "The Education of Betty"
 * Orphan's Ordeal: Anne. Emily. For starters. And there's a whole book of short stories (Akin to Anne) dedicated to nothing but orphan's ordeals.
 * The Penance
 * The Promise: Treated very darkly in Kilmeny of the Orchard. Kilmeny's aunt and uncle fervently believe her muteness is owed to
 * Race For Your Love: "Here Comes the Bride"
 * Real Name as an Alias: "The Pot and the Kettle"
 * The Speechless: Kilmeny.
 * The Storyteller: Emily is the most prominent.
 * Wife Husbandry: "The Education of Betty" By accident.
 * Yamato Nadeshiko: Pat of Silver Bush, to name one.
