| 520 | |a "<b>""The Secret Garden should be on every child's bookshelf.""-Amanda Craig, </b><i><b>The Time</b></i> An enchanting story of transformation and compassion, Frances Hodgson Burnett's <i>The Secret Garden</i> is widely considered to be one of the most important works of children's literature. After her parents die of cholera, Mary Lennox, a difficult and sickly little girl, is brought from India to her mysterious uncle's sprawling estate on the Yorkshire moors. Mary continues in her self-absorbed ways until one day she discovers a hidden and neglected garden adjoining her uncle's mansion. When she meets Ben Weatherstaff, a curt but gentle gardener, and discovers her hidden-away invalid cousin, Colin Craven, the three come together to tend the garden, and Mary's life-as well as the lives of those around her-begins to change in unforeseen ways. This Modern Library Paperback Classic is set from the text of the first American edition published in 1911. <b>Praise for <i>The Secret Garden</i></b>"It is only the exceptional author who can write a book about children with sufficient skill, charm, simplicity, and significance to make it acceptable to both young and old. Mrs. Burnett is one of the few thus gifted."<b>-</b><i><b>The New York Times</b></i> " | ||
