Few children's classics can match the charm and originality of Frances Hodgson Burnett's THE SECRET GARDEN, the unforgettable story of sullen, sulky Mary Lennox, "the most disagreeable-looking child ever seen." When a cholera epidemic leaves her an orphan,Mary is sent to England to live with her reclusive uncle, Archibald Craven, at Misselthwaite Manor.Unloved and unloving, Mary wanders the desolate moors until one day she chances upon the door of a secret garden.
What follows is one of the most beautiful tales of trans for mation in children's literature, as Mary,her sickly and tyrannical cousin Colin, and a peasant boy named Dickon secretly strive to make the garden bloom once more.A unique blend of realism and magic,THE SECRET GARDEN remains a moving expression of every child's need to nurture and be nurtured--a story that has captured for all time the rare andenchanted world of childhood. |
