You Usually Hear Marigold Before You See Her. Her Laughter Always Seems to Run Ahead. Marigold Lesley doesn't think it strange at all to hold fascinating conversations with her cat. She also sees nothing wrong with having an invisible best friend who lives in the orchard. But as Marigold starts to get older, her family is hoping she'll be a little less fanciful and a little more sensible. Yet how is it possible to be sensible when you meet a girl who claims to be a princess? Or when someone mistakes you for a girl who died? For Marigold, every day brings a bit of magic--and she wouldn't have it any other way. What Readers are Saying: "Wonderful! You will love Marigold." "This was my favorite L.M. Montgomery book as a kid." "I loved this book. I found myself wanting to be in Marigold's world...it sounded so wonderful."… (més)

Adventure

BooksInMirror | Feb 19, 2024 |

Only recommended for LM Montgomery completists. Whatever is good in this book is better in her others.

This is a story of Marigold Lesley’s life from babyhood to age 12. There is no sequel to carry her further.
Re-reading this as an adult, I am more interested in the adults in Marigold’s life, especially her wild uncle Klondike, her wise lady-doctor aunt, and her melancholy, sweet, nonentity mother who deserves more agency than she gets. But the adults are all rather ill-defined. And Marigold herself is a solitary, slightly sad little figure of childhood, even though she does have adventures she finds “int’resting.” (

I adore L.M. Montgomery and her style of writing is sweetly day-to-day. Little Marigold had so many usual childhood adventures and challenges. I very much enjoyed my time with her at Cloud of Spruce and visiting. (

L.M. Montgomery is a long time and all time favorite author of mine. She writes the perfect girls story with just the right mix of adventure, drama and happiness. I find her books a comfort to read and have re-read most of her works many times over the years. They are classics for a reason and that reason is they are great. These are true comfort books for me and books I enjoy re-reading again and again. (

Marigold is a bit like Anne... but not as gregarious and vivacious; a bit like Jane, but without the broken family; quite a bit like Emily, but with less conflict in her life and less ambition. Marigold is a dreamer and is content to live her fantasies and simple adventures rather than write them. If a novel requires conflict in some form, this is a slight novel with slight conflict. But sometimes a quiet and pleasant story is just what a reader needs. Marigold is never insipid, and her insights into the eccentric characters around her (with a few authorial comments) add an astringency and depth to the book without destroying its comfort. (

Once upon a time—which, when you come to think of it, is really the only proper way to begin a story—the only way that really smacks of romance and fairyland—all the Harmony members of the Lesley clan had assembled at Cloud of Spruce to celebrate Old Grandmother's birthday as usual.
