My favorite childhood book and also a yearly reread. The Secret Garden is everything I love in a children’s story, a little sadness, a little hope, a lot of love.

Lovely book. To me it always stays at a beautiful place in my heart. I've read it twice. A beautiful transformation in the life of equally beautiful little children. It not only helped these little kids also helped healed a little part of me. To me it's always a little home I visit when down. To me it's vibrant. It's starts grey and damp, but it takes you on a wonderful ride to the most colorful and warm place. I feel close to the children and I believe it represents their mental age and thoughts very well. Sometimes the children's world seems so much simpler and better you know .. Anyways I would always recommend this
