Resumen del Editor

"The Secret Garden" by Frances Hodgson Burnett is a children's book classic about an orphaned girl. Mary Lennox is a troubled, sickly and unloved 10-year-old, born in India to selfish, wealthy British parents, who never wanted her. She is cared for mainly by servants, and grows into a spoiled and selfish girl. When cholera kills Mary's parents and all the servants, she is sent to England, to live with Archibald Craven, an uncle she has never met, at his bleak, isolated house. At first, Mary is her usual self: sour and rude. She dislikes her uncle's home, the people in it, and most of all, the vast stretch of moor on which it sits. A good-natured maid tells Mary a story of the late Mrs. Craven and how she would spend hours in a private walled garden growing roses. She died after a tree branch fell on her in the garden, and the devastated Lord Craven locked the garden and buried the key. Mary's interest is aroused by this story and her ill manners begin to soften…
