Question: What book series is this!?
I vaguely remember reading a few books in this series when I was younger!. They are about a girl/girls and I think the books took place in the early 1900s!. The books followed the girl/girls as they got older; I think there was one for every year or so, from the time they were children up through the one girl's wedding!. I'm thinking that the first book was about two friends, but the books switched more to just following one of the girls as the series went on!. They were fictional!. Any idea of the name of at least one of the books, or what the series was!? I think the name(s) of the girl/girls were in most of the titles!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Possibly Anne of Green Gables by L!.M!. Montgomery!. They're primarily about Anne, but I think her friend Diana features fairly prominently in the earlier books!.

I would also say Elsie Dinsmore, but those books were always only about the one girl, there were not ever (to my recollection) two girl protagonists!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
