Synopsis

‘The Story Girl’ is a 1911 novel by the Canadian author Lucy Maud Montgomery (1874-1942). The book relates the adventures of a group of young people in the town of Carlisle on Canada’s Prince Edward Island. The story girl of the title is the fourteen year old Sara Stanley who weaves spellbinding tales that enchant her audience that comes from near and far. These thirty-two stories range from the humorous and satirical to exotic romances, Scottish folk tales, retellings of Greek myths and poems by Tennyson, to ghost stories. They include the scary "Tale of the Family Ghost", and the bittersweet "The Blue Chest of Rachel Ward".
