Have you ever read a book that was just life changing? The Secret Garden by Frances Hodgson Burnett was like that for me. I will ill a lot, as a child. Cooped up in hospital rooms or forced to lie in bed for months on end at home. Escaping into a world of fantasy through my books was the only thing that kept me sane.
The Secret Garden is about a little girl who was spoiled rotten but also pretty much ignored by her parents. She lives to boss her servants around until her parents and everyone around her are suddenly killed. She finds herself sent overseas to live with her tortured uncle, who is never there, and a son who has been kept hidden from the world. The son has been told his whole life that he will develop a hump and die.
He has been spoiled even more than she has been, even though he is forced to lie in bed all day, every day his whole life. The two of them get off to a rocky start until she discovers a secret garden that his mother planted before she died. The garden gives them a shared secret and a place where miracles an actually occur.
If you have never read it, it is definitely worth a read or as in my case, a hundredth read:)
you can read the full version here
- Although the full version of the book is free, there are a few ads in the book telling you where you can watch the full movie on Amazon. You can click out of them or go and watch it. The movie is also excellent.
