Review
"It is only the exceptional author who can write a book about children with sufficient skill, charm, simplicity, and significance to make it acceptable to both young and old. Mrs Burnett is one of the few thus gifted." -- The New York Times

"The Secret Garden should be on every child's bookshelf." -- The Times

The Secret Garden《秘密花园》主要讲述了一个任性而孤僻的富家小女孩玛丽因为一场突来的瘟疫变成了孤儿，被送往英国一处古老庄园里的亲戚家中收养。在幽僻宁静的乡野和淳朴的乡人中间，她的性情渐渐变得平易。一天深夜，循着神秘大宅长廊一端传来的隐隐哭声，她被带到了一个同样古怪而孤独的小生命面前。玛丽的表兄，大宅的少主人科林生来体弱，长年卧病在床，性情乖戾难测。为了帮助科林，玛丽带他进入了庄园里被关闭多年的秘密花园。孩子们在生机蓬勃的小天地里不受干扰地玩耍，学会了友爱待人，恢复了纯真快乐的天性。

When Mary Lennox is sent to Misselthwaite Manor to live with her uncle everybody says she is the most disagreeable-looking child ever seen. It is true, too. Mary is pale, spoilt and quite contrary. But she is also horribly lonely. Then one day she hears about a garden in the grounds of the Manor that has been kept locked and hidden for years. And when a friendly robin helps Mary find the key, she discovers the most magical place anyone could imagine...

弗朗西丝·霍奇森·伯内特（1849-1924），世界家喻户晓的儿童文学作家，1849年出生于英国曼彻斯特，1865年随全家移民美国田纳西州，代表作The Secret Garden《秘密花园》（1911）、A Little Princess《小公主》（1905）、Little Lord Fauntleroy《小勋爵》（1855-6）。

Frances Hodgson Burnett (1849–1924) was an English-American author and playwright. She is best known for her incredibly popular novels for children, including Little Lord Fauntleroy, A Little Princess, and The Secret Garden.

When Mary Lennox was sent to Misselthwaite Manor to live with her uncle everybody said she was the most disagreeable-looking child ever seen. It was true, too. She had a little thin face and a little thin body, thin light hair and a sour expression. Her hair was yellow, and her face was yellow because she had been born in India and had always been ill in one way or another. Her father had held a position under the English Government and had always been busy and ill himself, and her mother had been a great beauty who cared only to go to parties and amuse herself with gay people. She had not wanted a little girl at all, and when Mary was born she handed her over to the care of an Ayah, who was made to understand that if she wished to please the Mem Sahib she must keep the child out of sight as much as possible. So when she was a sickly, fretful, ugly little baby she was kept out of the way, and when she became a sickly, fretful, toddling thing she was kept out of the way also. She never remembered seeing familiarly anything but the dark faces of her Ayah and the other native servants, and as they always obeyed her and gave her her own way in everything, because the Mem Sahib would be angry if she was disturbed by her crying, by the time she was six years old she was as tyrannical and selfish a little pig as ever lived. The young English governess who came to teach her to read and write disliked her so much that she gave up her place in three months, and when other governesses came to try to fill it they always went away in a shorter time than the first one. So if Mary had not chosen to really want to know how to read books she would never have learned her letters at all.

One frightfully hot morning, when she was about nine years old, she awakened feeling very cross, and she became crosser still when she saw that the servant who stood by her bedside was not her Ayah.
“Why did you come?” she said to the strange woman. “I will not let you stay. Send my Ayah to me.”
The woman looked frightened, but she only stammered that the Ayah could not come and when Mary threw herself into a passion and beat and kicked her, she looked only more frightened and repeated that it was not possible for the Ayah to come to Missie Sahib.
