The novel "The Secret Garden" by Frances Hodgson Burnett was published in 1911. It follows the story of Mary Lennox, a young English girl who is spoiled and raised in India. After the death of her parents, she is sent to live at her uncle's mysterious estate, Misselthwaite Manor in Yorkshire, England.
Mary initially struggles with dressing herself and has a disagreeable personality. However, after being welcomed by Mrs. Medlock, she becomes increasingly curious and makes many discoveries, leading to a happy ending.
Frances beautifully describes the vast moor and the lively wildlife found in England. Burnett highlighted that every creature, human or animal, has an important story to tell, capturing life in many forms.
