Mary Lennox was horrid. Selfish and spoilt, she was sent to stay with her hunchback uncle in Yorkshire. She hated it.

But when she finds the way into a secret garden and begins to tend to it, a change comes over her and her life. She meets and befriends a local boy, the talented Dickon, and comes across her sickly cousin Colin who had been kept hidden from her. Between them, the three children work astonishing magic in themselves and those around them.

The Secret Garden is one of the best-loved stories of all time.

At first people refuse to believe that a strange new thing can be done, then they begin to hope it can be done, then they see it can be done--then it is done and all the world wonders why it was not done centuries ago.

After her parents' death, sickly ten-year-old Mary Lennox is sent to Misselthwaite Manor to live with her uncle. Everyone sees her as a selfish and rude child, but she's also terribly lonely. She dislikes her new home, but one day she finds the key to a locked and neglected garden.

Mary decides to bring the garden back to life and finds one of the most magical places anyone could imagine.
