The Secret Garden (Frances Hodgson Burnett)

Lonely orphan Mary Lennox unlocks a hidden garden and helps a grieving house come back to life.

This beautiful deluxe gift edition of The Secret Garden features foiled covers, marbled endpaper, sprayed edges, beautiful paper and a silk ribbon.

After her parents die in India, Mary Lennox arrives at Misselthwaite Manor in Yorkshire: pale, spoilt, contrary and desperately lonely. The house has locked rooms, long corridors and a mystery at its heart. Outside, a friendly robin leads Mary toward a hidden garden that has been shut away for years. With Dickon, Colin and the healing force of the moor, she discovers friendship, fresh air and the possibility of transformation.

A treasured children's classic, The Secret Garden is a story about nature, healing and the return of hope. This Vintage Collector's Classics hardback makes a lovely gift for readers, families and collectors.
