Let yourself be enchanted by this retelling of the classic 'The Secret Garden' by Imme Dros. Now in an extra luxurious edition. Mary stared at the rusty thing in her hands. A key. ‘Perhaps it lay buried there for ten years,’ she whispered. ‘Perhaps it belongs to the garden!’ She was allowed everywhere, they had said, just not in that one room, and not in that one garden. But Mary hears sounds, in the forbidden room. Imagination, they say. And: forbidden! Over the wall of the secret garden, Mary constantly sees the same bird flying. Mary doesn't like forbidden things and she doesn't like secrets either... Can she unravel the secrets? Luxurious large-format edition with a ribbon marker, gold foil on the cover, a decorative border on each page, and gilt-edged pages. Tonke Dragt on The Secret Garden: ‘A delightful book - my favorite book. The Secret Garden has it all: it's mysterious, exciting, and enchantingly beautiful! A book every child should have read.’ Frances Hodgson Burnett's The Secret Garden first appeared in 1911. More than a hundred years later, the story of the stubborn, selfish orphan Mary who manages to bring a forbidden, neglected garden back to life - and herself along with it - is still enchanting for young and old. A beautiful narrative where the parallels between nature, friendship, and imagination seem inconspicuous, yet are magical. Now in a very luxurious edition.
