This beautiful edition of Frances Hodgson Burnett s cherished children s story brings together the complete and unabridged text with over seventy evocative illustrations and botanical studies by the award-winning artist Robert Ingpen.

When spoiled rich girl, Mary Lennox, is orphaned, she is shipped from India to live in her uncle s enormous manor in faraway England. Before long, Mary finds a key to a secret garden that has been left untouched for ten years, and a whole new world of enchantment opens up to her. For the first time she learns to make friends – with the talented animal-charmer, Dickon, and her sickly cousin, Colin, who has been hidden away behind closed doors – and together they reveal the garden s haunting secrets.

A full-colour illustrated edition of one of the world s best loved stories.
