Set on Prince Edward Island, the home of Anne of Green Gables, in the mid-19th century, Mattie's Story is based on a story told by the author's grandmother about her own grandparents. Mattie's Story relates a year in the life of Mattie Cameron, a descendant of the Selkirk Settlers who first came to the Island in 1803. Mattie's Story is fiction with perennial themes: relationships (mother and daughter, husband and wife, friend and friend); marriage, maturity, and responsibility; women's lives (marriage, childbirth, death and remarriage); life in a community
