Features: A cholera outbreak turned the ill-tempered girl Mary into an orphan overnight, and she was sent to be raised by relatives in England. The vast and empty marshland manor was filled with legends about a secret garden. Alone, Mary, with the help of birds, found the key to open the garden, hoping to bring it back to life after being for ten years. Under the inspiration of nature and the help of the magical boy Dickon, Mary gradually became healthier and happier. Following the strange cries in the manor, Mary discovered a fragile and sensitive child—her cousin Colin—and thus, more secrets were revealed. The author of this book, Frances Hodgson Burnett, was one of the most famous female writers of the last century. The Secret Garden is her most successful representative work. It not only enjoys the love of readers worldwide but also receives high praise in the field of serious literature.
