Prettification

And speaking of new and improved cover art, somebody has FINALLY done a makeover on L.M. Montgomery's novels. Behold the New Canadian Library's versions of Anne of Green Gables and Emily of New Moon:



Not exactly mind-blowing, but I think everyone will agree they're an improvement over these:



Unfortunately, they only seem to be offering books from these two series, and American readers probably need to special-order them from a Canadian bookstore. So we're still stuck waiting for an American publisher to give all of Montgomery's books a much-needed facelift... but this is definitely a step in the right direction!

I've seen different covers for Anne of GG, but none of her other books.
