Let yourself be carried away by this enchanting retelling of the classic 'The Secret Garden' by Imme Dros. Now in an extra deluxe edition.
Mary stared at the rusty thing in her hands. A key.
'Maybe he was buried there for ten years,' she whispered. 'Maybe he's from the garden!'
She was allowed to go everywhere, they had said, just not in that one room, and in that one garden.
But Mary hears sounds, in the forbidden room. Imagination, they say. And: forbidden!
Mary keeps seeing the same bird flying over the wall of the secret garden.
Mary doesn't like forbidden things and she doesn't like secrets either...
Can she unravel the secrets?
Deluxe edition in large format with ribbon, gold foil on the cover, decorative border on every page and gold edges.
Tonke Dragt about The Secret Garden:
'Delightful book - my favourite book. The Secret Garden has everything: it is mysterious, exciting and enchantingly beautiful! A book that every child should read.’
The Secret Garden by Frances Hodgson Burnett was first published in 1911. More than a hundred years later, the story of the stubborn, selfish orphan Mary who manages to bring a forbidden, neglected garden back to bloom - and with it herself - is still enchanting for young and old.
A beautiful story in which the parallels between nature, friendship and imagination seem inconspicuous, but are magical.
Now in a very luxurious edition.
