The Secret Garden

The Secret Garden

by: Frances Hodgson Burnett

retold by: Joyce Faraday

Have you ever felt alone and left out? Have you experienced being a spoiled brat? Have you ever discovered your own magical secret? Meet Mary Lennox, a young, bad-tempered and spoiled young lady, sent to Misselwaithe Manor in New York. There, she is able to gain new friends and is able to grow into a lovely girl, aided by the magic of the Secret Garden.

I can relate to it since I also have a very sickly cousin, like Colin, who is one of the characters in the story.  Like Mary who always visits Colin, I always visit my cousin. I feel very contented after reading since the character were able to have a happy ending. The Secret Garden is one of my favorite books, I like the way the story goes, and how it teaches you a lesson.

I would recommend this to other kids because I know they will love this book because of the secret it possesses. Even though written over 50 years ago, The Secret Garden is a story whose secret will never fail to appeal to generation after generation.
