Welcome to Fadedpage.com!
Faded Page is an archive of eBooks that are provided completely free to everyone. The books are produced by volunteers all over the world, and we believe they are amongst the highest quality eBooks anywhere. Every one has been scanned, run through OCR software, proofed, formatted and assembled extremely carefully, using hundreds of volunteer hours. These books are public domain in Canada (because we follow the Canadian copyright laws), but if you are in another country, you should satisfy yourself that you are not breaking the copyright laws of your own country by downloading them. You are free to do whatever you like with these books, but we hope that mainly...you will enjoy reading them.

If your Christmas tastes tend to the heartwarming and sentimental, you may wish to try a couple of short stories by Lucy Maud Montgomery that are set during the Christmas season: “A Christmas of Long Ago” and “Ted’s Double: A Christmas Folly”. At 7 and 12 pages respectively, they can be easily tucked into the short spaces between tree-trimming, carolling, shopping, and other holiday-related tasks and events. They are best served with a roaring fire, hot cocoa, and a cosy blanket.
These are just two of many Montgomery short stories (and novels) available on Faded Page and listed on Montgomery’s Special Collections page. If you’d like to help us add more of her work to the public domain, come join us and proofread a few pages. Your contribution is very much appreciated. Information about volunteering is available at our companion site, Distributed Proofreaders Canada.
