The Secret Garden is now one of Frances Burnett's most popular novels and is considered to be a classic of English children's literature. Several stage and film adaptations have been produced.

Frances Hodgson Burnett (1849 - 1924)
Mary Lennox is a "disagreeable-looking" 10-year-old girl who is born in India to selfish wealthy British parents who had not wanted her and were too wrapped up in their own lives. She was taken care of primarily by servants, who pacified her as much as possible to keep her out of the way. Spoilt and with a temper, she is unaffectionate, angry, rude and obstinate. Later, there is a cholera epidemic which hits India and kills her mother, father and all the servants.

Orphaned Mary Lennox is sent to live with her uncle in Yorkshire, and finds herself in a house full of secrets and mysteries.
