Hear It Read It: The Secret Garden (Other)

Frances Hodgson Burnett's engrossing story of secrets and discoveries, brought to life in a new book-plus-audio edition.

Mary Lennox doesn't want to move to England to live with her uncle, but she has no choice. At first she hates her uncle's cold house, the gardens and moors that surround it and the servants with their funny way of talking. And at night she hears a child crying, but the servants insist it's only the wind. Curious in spite of herself, Mary wanders the house and gardens and discovers that both are full of secrets.

The Secret Garden is read by Jenny Agutter, who appeared in Peter Pan with the British National Theatre.
