Emily Climbs

Emily Byrd Starr grapples with her passion for writing and the pressures of family expectations as she navigates her adolescence. After the loss of her father, writing becomes her refuge, but as her friends leave for school, she faces a pivotal choice: sacrifice her art or her cherished home. Set against the backdrop of New Moon Farm and Blair Water, Emily's journey explores themes of ambition, tradition, and self-discovery. This edition includes a new foreword by scholar Dr. E. Holly Pike, highlighting its enduring relevance alongside L.M. Montgomery's beloved works.
