Synopsis
The main character of this story is Mary Lennox. She has been born to rich British parents that are currently living in India. Her parents were busy with extravagent parties and left Mary with her ayah for most of the time. Orphaned by an outbreak of cholera, she is sent back to England to be cared for by her mother's sister's husband, Archibald Craven, a reclusive widower. Craven's wife, Lilian, passed away ten years earlier. He is still mourning that loss. To escape his sad memories, he constantly travels abroad, leaving the entire manor, including Mary, to be cared for by his housekeeper, Mrs. Medlock. The only person who has any time for the little girl is the chambermaid Martha Sowerby, who tells Mary about a locked up garden, surrounded by a wall that was the late Mrs. Craven's favorite place. No one has entered the garden since she died because Archibald locked its entrance and buried the key. He hasn't told anyone where it is.

Review
"more than 70 wonderful illustrations and botanical studies enrich this classic story" * Bookseller * "... from Templar comes another of Robert Ingpen's superby illustrated classic books in celebration (of centenary). This is a hardback beauty: delicate botanical species paintings head each chapter and there is great variety in size and spacing of the rest of the intricate paintings. The picturing of Mary's first entry into the garden is perfect" * School Library Journal * "beautifully illustrated" * Hatchards Autumn and Winter Catalogue *
