    While Emily of New Moon was not faithful to the 3 novels written by L.M. Montgomery it does feature some of the stories. In addition, I feel that the cast we very well chosen considering half the roles were performed by children. Some have said it's a weird series - but in order to understand Emily you need to read the books - everything makes more sense when you can fill in the gaps.

    Well acted with good storylines I think the series was one of a few that complemented the books without insulting them.

    My only critism was that Elizabeth wasn't in it for the whole series.moreless
