The secret garden is a brillant book as I felt in some ways sorry for Mary and Colin, but the way that the garden brings them to life again and the way the book makes you feel when you read about them coming to life is absolutely amazing. I have read this book plenty of times and seen both movies but the book doesn't even compare to either movies. A most for anyone who has ever wished they could go find a secret garden to go to when they were a child.
Very efficient service - wonderful story just as I remember from my childhood. A good read for adults and children alike.

This is a lovely little story. I find it quite uplifting reading about the children developing their personallites and becoming quite different people. I have always loved this story, and also the film. Would recomend as a classic, a childrens story and for adults reading!

Great book/cheap publication
Great story to read your kids but this publication is really cheap. Thin tracing paper pages.
