Raised in India with servants for her every whim, Mary Lennox is suddenly orphaned and sent to her uncle's bleak Yorkshire estate. There the spoiled girl discovers she has a cousin, the sickly and secluded Colin, and the pair are later befriended by Dickon, a country boy who charms animals. When the children uncover a hidden door they find a long-forgotten garden—and in bringing it back to life, Mary and Colin are themselves revitalized. This 1911 novel is a classic that "should be on every child's bookshelf" (Times, London), here in a portable paperback edition.
