Publisher Description
Penguin presents the unabridged audiobook edition of The Secret Garden by Frances Hodgson Burnett, read by Indira Varma.
'I've stolen a garden,' she said very fast. 'It isn't mine. It isn't anybody's. Nobody wants it, nobody cares for it, nobody ever goes into it. Perhaps everything is dead in it already; I don't know.'
After losing her parents, young Mary Lennox is sent from India to live in her uncle's gloomy mansion on the wild English moors. She is lonely and has no one to play with, but one day she learns of a secret garden somewhere in the grounds that no one is allowed to enter. Then Mary uncovers an old key in a flowerbed - and a gust of magic leads her to the hidden door. Slowly she turns the key and enters a world she could never have imagined.

A Joy to Listen To
This book is beautifully read. It is uplifting in telling the story of the human condition: troubled, damaged but ultimately choosing the healing path. A book for any age. An absolute joy!
