Colin is as self-centered and ornery as Mary, but despite their clashing temperaments, a friendship starts to flower. Then she discovers another secret - an invalid cousin hidden away in the depths of the manor. But when a friendly robin leads Mary to a mysterious abandoned garden, her life begins to change. In The Secret Garden, considered Frances Hodgson Burnett's finest work, the unlikely heroine is the newly orphaned Mary Lennox, who arrives sullen and sickly at her uncle's lonely manor on the English moors. Frances Hodgson Burnett's reputation as one of the greatest writers of children's literature was established with three books - here, at last, collected in one volume. ![]()
