From Michael Morpurgo: "I love this story of a girl's life being changed by nature."
When a cholera epidemic kills Mary Lennox''s family in India, she is taken to her Uncle Craven''s house in the sprawling Yorkshire moors, Misselthwaite Manor. Previously angry and lonely, Mary grows calmer and gradually makes friends with her maidservant Martha Sowerby who tells her that the late Mrs Craven used to love tending to a private garden in the grounds but following her death, her Uncle Craven had locked the garden and buried the key.
