Anne of Green Gables: Difference between revisions

Line 141:

* [[Genki Girl]]: Anne is the epitome of this trope. She's described as increasingly and significantly quieter and calmer growing up, however.

* [[Germans Love David Hasselhoff]]: The books -- under the name ''Red-Haired Anne'' -- have an astounding popularity in Japan, where they are practically a cultural phenomenon. Prince Edward Island in Canada is subject to a remarkable number of Japanese tourists who come to see their setting, and there's a "Canadian World" theme park in Hokkaido which has a full-size reconstruction of the Green Gables house.

* [[Girl Next Door]]: Diana.
