When spoilt young orphan Mary Lennox is brought back from India to live
in her uncle's house on the Yorkshire Moors, she finds the blunt ways of
the staff at Misselthwaite Manor an unpleasant shock. Bored and miserable,
it seems as though life in England will be awful. But Misselthwaite has
hidden delights and, when Mary begins to discover them, nothing is the same
again. First, there is the secret garden - and with it comes a boy who knows
all the wonders of the country. He can even talk to the birds! Then, as the
old house gives up its biggest secret, Mary forms a magical friendship.
