This is about my favorite person on the tv show "Avonlea", Sara Stanley. Sara is played by a Canadian actress named Sarah Polley, who also played 'Ramona Quimby' in the Ramona TV show. She has made a lot of movies too.
I love the character of Sara, in the tv show and in the books "The Story Girl" and the "Golden Road" both written by Lucy Maud Montgomery. I have alos read two of the "Anne of Green Gables" books by Mrs. Montgomery, with my mom.
I love it that Sara has such a big imagination and can tell stories to entertain her friends. She is never afraid and makes friends with people in town that her family tells her she shouldn't.
Sara leaves Montreal as a young girl to live with her Aunts Hetty and Olivia King on Prince Edward Island. The live in a small house in Avonlea called "The Rose Cottage". Aunt Hetty teaches school and Aunt Olivia takes care of the home.
At first Aunt Hetty seems to be mean and uncaring about Sara, but you just know that deep inside she loves her. Aunt Olivia is all soft and sweet and loves to give hugs.
Sara's two cousins, Felix and Felicity are not very nice to her at first, because they think she will be a snob. They are all friends after they have a really big fight in the episode "Proof of the Pudding".
Sara has a nanny that has raised her since her mother died. She calls her 'Nanny Louisa'. Nanny and Aunt Hetty do not like each other at all and always want Sara to choose between them. It is hard for Sara, becasue she loves them both. |
