Description

 


Mary Lennox is sent from an India as an orphan to live at Misselthwaite Manor. She arrives as a sour-faced, sickly and ill-tempered little madam but becomes friends with local lad Dickon and her poorly cousin Colin. In their restoration of a secret garden all their lives are changed for the better.


With an Afterword by Anna South.

Inga Moore has illustrated numerous classics including Kenneth Grahame's The Wind in the Willows and E.
