So begins one of the world's most-loved children's stories.
First pub-lished in 1911, this is the poignant tale of a lonely
little girl, orphaned and sent to a Yorkshire mansion at the edge
of a vast lonely moor. At first, she is frightened by this gloomy
place, but with the help of the local boy Dickon, who earns the
trust of the moor's wild animals with his honesty and love; the
invalid Colin, a spoiled, unhappy boy terri-fied of life; and a
mysterious, abandoned garden, Mary is eventually overcome by the
mystery of life itself~its birth and renewal, its love and joy.
Opening the door into the innermost places of the heart,' The
Secret Garden is a timeless classic that has left generations of
readers with warm, lifelong memories of its magical charms.
