Description

The perfect gift for a young reader. Share your beloved childhood stories with the next generation! This beautiful edition of Frances Hodgson Burnett's cherished children's story brings together the complete and unabridged text with over seventy evocative illustrations and botanical studies by the award-winning artist Robert Ingpen. When spoiled rich girl, Mary Lennox, is orphaned, she is shipped from India to live in her uncle's enormous manor in faraway England. Before long, Mary finds a key to a secret garden that has been left untouched for ten years, and a whole new world of enchantment opens up to her. For the first time she learns to make friends with the talented animal-charmer, Dickon, and her sickly cousin, Colin, who has been hidden away behind closed doors and together they reveal the garden's haunting secrets. A full-colour illustrated edition of one of the world's best loved stories. 'Ingpen's drawings are utterly compelling' Michael Morpurgo
