Book Reviews of The Secret Garden

Book Review: I read this to my 5 1/2 year old
Summary: 5 Stars

and the illustrations were just enough to hold her attention. This was her first chapter book and she resisted at first, but it went like gangbusters after that. It's lucky we read it over the summer because she wouldn't let me stop and we stayed up past her bedtime every night until we finished it. We loved Mistress Mary, and the contrary face the illustrator drew for her, gently metamorphing her into a sweet little girl. The abridgement is unnoticeable to me, who read it, or more likely, it was read to, at about the same age.

Summary of The Secret Garden

The beloved original text now offered in a definitive gift edition by esteemed illustrator Inga Moore.

"Then she slipped through the door, and shut it behind her, breathing quite fast with excitement, and wonder, and delight. She was standing inside the secret garden."


First published in 1909, THE SECRET GARDEN has entranced readers with the courage and strength of two unhappy and withered children who become determined to make their lives and the lives of others around them more joyful. In this remarkable new edition, Inga Moore?s beautifully observed illustrations capture the wonder of the secret garden springing to life under the tender care of Mary Lennox; her spoiled invalid cousin, Colin; and Dickon, a Yorkshire boy.
