Publisher's summary

When his brother catches measles, Tom is sent away for the summer to stay with his uncle and aunt and is thoroughly fed up about it. What a boring summer it's going to be. But then, lying in bed one night, he hears the old grandfather clock in the hall strike the very strange hour of 13 o'clock. What can it mean? As Tom creeps downstairs and opens the door, he finds out...a magical garden, a new playmate, and the adventure of a lifetime. Una Stubbs stars as Aunt Gwen in this BBC Radio 4 full-cast dramatisation.

Most Favorite Childhood Story

I have loved this book for most of my life. I first read it when I was about 10 or 11 years old. I have re-read it several times, most recently at 71 years old! It deals with time travel if a sort, and how we as children find ways to survive . This book most certainly kept me company when I really have needed it. About time and the beginning and ending of life .
