Overview of The Secret Garden

When Mary Lennox, a spoiled and self-centered girl who has experienced little of real life, is sent to live with her uncle at Misselthwaite Manor, she is both friendless and thoughtless, content in her solitary ways. However, life begins to change for Mary as she meets a variety of colorful characters at the manor. With the help of a brick wall, a robin, and a mystery, Mary embarks on a quest to unlock the Secret Garden. The story’s charming characters will warm your heart (while others may prompt reflection on your own behavior).

The Secret Garden is a timeless tale of transformation, revealing what lies on the other side of our own limitations. With hope and a touch of magic, Mary—and readers—learn that the true magic of the Secret Garden lies in friendship, kindness, hope, and love. Featuring beautiful writing and rich garden imagery,

The Secret Garden continues to captivate and inspire readers of all ages.
