Anne of the Long Window
Anne and her parents live in a tight little house in the far, far north where her parents work in a research facility. Anne has a great deal of time by herself, but she is never bored, as she has a great imagination —and an imaginary friend she calls Gilbert, who lives in the reflection of the long window in their living room. Gilbert is inspired by a character in her favorite book "Anne of Green Gables" — and she fancies herself to be the Anne of the story. Her dear Gilbert remains in her imagination until the day she meets a real life boy named Gilbert who confides that he has an imaginary friend named Anne!
This story was inspired by a lovely song and real-life story from two different subscribers.
