So, I walked into my local Goodwill and there, staring at me from the shelf right by the front door, was Tales from Avonlea - Beginnings. And I thought to myself, "WHO GOT RID OF THIS?!?!?!?!" And then I thought to myself, "I'm CERTAIN I can find someone who will LOVE it!!"
Now the only question is - is that person YOU!?
If you haven't yet been introduced to the wonderful world of Avonlea through Sullivan Entertainment's Road to Avonlea series then you, well, really should watch it. Find it at your library, buy the set (they are rather hefty in price but worth every penny, in my opinion!) or do SOMEthing. This is just an awesome, fun series and I highly recommend it. (Highly, highly, highly.)
This particular set that I found at Goodwill is a "collection" set, of sorts. It has only eight episodes (from Seasons 1 and 2) but these are some of my favorites. I hope they'll be yours also.
It has:
- The Journey Begins
- Proof of the Pudding (HAHAHAAHA! Oh my.)
- The Quarantine At Alexander Abraham's (I snicker just typing the title, it's that great.)
- The Materializing of Duncan
- The Witch of Avonlea
- Nothing Endures But Change
- How Kissing Was Discovered (Helllloo, Felicity & Gus!)
- Aunt Hetty's Ordeal
Just enter. I can't think of why you'd be terribly disappointed by this. (And what a great, cheap way to familiarize yourself with this series if you haven't already done so youverybadperson, you!!)
This contest is open to U.S. Residents only and will be open through Sunday, January 22nd. (And yes, if you are participating in the Lucy Maud Montgomery Reading Challenge and have written up a post linking back and saying so, then you may happily leave a second comment for a second entry.) Please also leave a valid e-mail address along with your comment so that I can contact you, should your name be selected as the winner.
Happy Watching! :D
:D :D :D

Hmm, never heard of this. Since you're making me feel terrible about never having seen it, I suppose I should throw my name into the hat. =)
I've never seen it either. Oops! ;)
I picked up 2 of the books this past weekend at an indoor rummage. I would love to have the start of the series.

Looks like fun! I'd like to add it to our collection. I seem to prefer watching Montgomery's works rather than reading them.

youverybadperson? Well, now, we can't have that! Guess I'll have to remedy this situation, lol. I've read the Anne series, of course, but never watched any movie or series (just a play). . .better enter the contest I guess! :)
I would love a chance to win this ... I loved watching Road to Avonlea growing up :) Thanks for the opportunity.
Would love to win!! We loved that show as kiddos! We didn't have cable but my aunt who did would record them on VHS and mail them to us. :)
