Introduction

A cholera epidemic made the surly Mary an orphan, and she had to be sent to the home of her uncle Craven in England.

Mr. Craven was saddened by the death of his wife and became gloomy, weird and depressed. His manor has hundreds of locked houses and a secret garden that no one is allowed to enter for ten years. Mary accidentally discovered the key to the secret garden, and she also heard a mysterious cry, attracting her to explore the mystery of the manor.

Mary, with Dickon's help, brought the barren garden back to life. Soon, Colin, the young owner of the manor who was thought to be close to death, also joined in. The power of nature changed everything, and the ancient manor and its owner, which had been shrouded in gloom for many years, were reborn.

This is one of Netty's best-selling works and has been adapted into movies, TV shows, cartoons, plays, and stage plays more than ten times. The musical adapted by Martha Norman won the Tony Award in 1991, and Daisy Egan, who played Mary, became the youngest Best Actress winner in the history of the Tony Award; in 1993, "The Secret Garden" was selected by the Polish film master Holland once again adapted it into a film, which won him great fame.

About the author: Frances Hodgson Burnett (1849-1924) is a well-known children's literature writer in the English-speaking world. She was born in Manchester, England. She spent her childhood in England. In 1865, she immigrated to Tennessee with her family in the United States. . Burnett's father died young and his family was poor. He began publishing stories in magazines at the age of 18 to supplement the family income. However, it is her children's literature that makes Burnett famous around the world. In 1886, she published the novel "Little Master Fauntleroy", which tells the story of a young American boy who became the heir to an English earl. "Fauntroy" has since become an English term that refers to "an overly dressed-up child." The book made Burnett one of the best-selling and wealthiest popular writers of the time. Both this book and "The Little Princess" published in 1905 have been adapted into plays. In 1909, when she was decorating her garden in Long Island, New York, she was inspired to conceive "The Secret Garden". This novel was first published in 1911 and became a best-seller in both her countries, the United Kingdom and the United States, and became her most famous and successful work.

All three novels were once popular, published in dozens of versions, and adapted into movies and TV series many times. . For more than half a century, her works have been essential literary books for children in British and American families.
