The Secret Garden
Original story by Frances Hodgson Burnett
Adapted by Geraldine McCaughrean • Illustrated by Margarita Kukhtina
Gloriously illustrated in full colour, this charming retelling by double Carnegie Medal winner Geraldine McCaughrean is the perfect introduction to this classic tale of friendship and new beginnings.
When Mary Lennox is sent from India to live with her uncle at gloomy Misselthwaite Manor, she is the most spoiled and contrary child you could ever meet. But she is also extremely lonely. Until one day, she discovers
a walled garden that has been kept secret for years. With the help of a little robin, Mary unearths the key and unlocks the wonder that lies beyond the garden walls – and finds that making friends can be every bit as life-changing as a magical garden.
