The Secret Garden
Frances Hodgson Burnett
The story follows Mary Lennox, a spoiled, ill-tempered, and unhealthy orphaned girl, who is sent from India to live with her reclusive uncle, Mr. Craven, at Misselthwaite Manor on the gloomy Yorkshire moors. Lonely and with no one to play with, Mary eventually learns of a hidden, neglected garden that no one is allowed to enter. With the help of a cheerful robin, she uncovers the key and a hidden door, entering a magical, forgotten world. As she secretly begins to restore the garden, she also discovers her sickly, wilful cousin, Colin, who has been confined to his room and told he is too weak to go outside. The magic of the garden, coupled with Mary's determination and the help of a local boy, Dickon, brings health, happiness, and restoration not only to the garden but also to Colin and Mary, transforming their lives and the sad atmosphere of the manor.
