How many pages does the secret garden have

About The Book

With a new movie coming in 2020, it’s time to rediscover Frances Hodgson Burnett’s classic story of a little girl, a mysterious hidden garden, and the healing power of nature.

When orphaned Mary Lennox comes to live at her uncle’s great house on the Yorkshire Moors, she finds it full of secrets. The mansion has nearly one hundred rooms, and her uncle keeps himself locked up. And at night, she hears the sound of crying down one of the long corridors.

The gardens surrounding the large property are Mary’s only escape. Then, Mary discovers a secret garden, surrounded by walls and locked with a missing key. With the help of two unexpected companions, Mary discovers a way in—and becomes determined to bring the garden back to life.

About The Author

Though she began writing novels for adults, she gained lasting success writing for children. She is best known for Little Lord Fauntleroy (1855–1856), A Little Princess (1905), and The Secret Garden (1911).

  Hardcover. Condition: Fair. Robinson, Charles (illustrator). 1st Edition. 306 pages, plus six pages of Heinemann ads. All 8 plates by Charles Robinson, all with their tissue guards. Green cloth with gilt lettering and decoration on front board and spine strip. This is the good news. Now for the faults: he boards are rubbed, and chipped and fraying at the edges; the spine strip is damages head and tail with splits on either side. There are two ownership signatures on the front end paper, which, together with the half title page and frontispiece is mostly detached, apart from a section towards the tail. The front hinge is cracked as is the back one. As the green cloth is well worn along the spine strip, the back board is shaky, though it is unlikely to become detached, as the cotton ties are still strong. There is intermittent light foxing throughout; pp 115/116 have a short tear at the tail's outer edge and page 243 suffers from loss, also at the tail's outer edge. Neither affects the print. A book that has been loved and read, it's no beauty queen and it does suffer from arthritic joints. In its favour, the binding is very good, and for all its faults it should easily last another 100+ years if treated with respect.

Tight, clean and unmarked-Nicely illustrated- "One of the most delightful and enduring classics of children's literature, The Secret Garden by Victorian author Frances Hodgson Burnett has remained a firm favorite with children the world over ever since it made its first appearance. Initially published as a serial story in 1910 in The American Magazine, it was brought out in novel form in 1911. The plot centers round Mary Lennox, a young English girl who returns to England from India, having suffered the immense trauma by losing both her parents in a cholera epidemic. However, her memories of her parents are not pleasant, as they were a selfish, neglectful and pleasure-seeking couple. Mary is given to the care of her uncle Archibald Craven, whom she has never met. She travels to his home, Misselthwaite Manor located in the gloomy Yorkshire, a vast change from the sunny and warm climate she was used to. When she arrives, she is a rude, stubborn and given to stormy temper tantrums. However, her nature undergoes a gradual transformation when she learns of the tragedies that have befallen her strict and disciplinarian uncle whom she earlier feared and despised. Once when he's away from home, Mary discovers a charming walled garden which is always kept locked. The mystery deepens when she hears sounds of sobbing from somewhere within her uncle's vast mansion. The kindly servants ignore her queries or pretend they haven't heard, spiking Mary's curiosity. The Secret Garden appeals to both young and old alike. It has wonderful elements of mystery, spirituality, charming characters and an authentic rendering of childhood emotions and experiences. Commonsense, truth and kindness, compassion and a belief in the essential goodness of human beings lie at the heart of this unforgettable story. It is the best known of Frances Hodgson Burnett's works, though most of us have definitely heard of, if not read, her other novel Little Lord Fauntleroy. The book has been adapted extensively on stage, film and television and translated into all the world's major languages. In 1991, a Japanese anime version was launched for television in Japan. It remains a popular and beloved story of a child's journey into maturity, and a must-read for every child, parent, teacher and anyone who would enjoy this fascinating glimpse of childhood. One of the most delightful and enduring classics of children's literature, The Secret Garden by Victorian author Frances Hodgson Burnett has remained a firm favorite with children the world over ever since it made its first appearance. Initially published as a serial story in 1910 in The American Magazine, it was brought out in novel form in 1911.".

• Hardcover. Condition: As New. Dust Jacket Condition: As New. McKowen, Scott (illustrator). 1st Edition. Other than a name on the inside cover, this is a clean, tight and unmarked copy-" The illustrations for this series were created by Scott McKowen, who, with his wife Christina Poddubiuk, operates Punch & Judy Inc., a company specializing in design and illustration for theater and performing arts. Their projects often involve research into the visual aspects of historical settings and characters. Christina is a theater set and costume designer and contributed advice on the period clothing for the illustrations. Scott created these drawings in scratchboard � an engraving medium which evokes the look of popular art from the period of these stories. Scratchboard is an illustration board with a specifically prepared surface of hard white chalk. A thin layer of black ink is rolled over the surface, and lines are drawn by hand with a sharp knife by scraping through the ink layer to expose the white surface underneath. The finished drawings are then scanned and the color is added digitally. Born in India, the unattractive and willful Mary Lennox has remained in the care of servants for as long as she can remember. But the girl?s life changes when her mother and father die and she travels to Yorkshire to live with her uncle. Dark, dreary Misselthwaite Manor seems full of mysteries, including a very special garden, locked tight for 10 years. With the help of Dickon, a local boy, Mary intends to uncover its secrets. Review: Mistress Mary is quite contrary until she helps her garden grow. Along the way, she manages to cure her sickly cousin Colin, who is every bit as imperious as she. These two are sullen little peas in a pod, closed up in a gloomy old manor on the Yorkshire moors of England, until a locked-up garden captures their imaginations and puts the blush of a wild rose in their cheeks; "It was the sweetest, most mysterious-looking place any one could imagine. The high walls which shut it in were covered with the leafless stems of roses which were so thick, that they matted together. 'No wonder it is still,' Mary whispered. 'I am the first person who has spoken here for ten years.'" As new life sprouts from the earth, Mary and Colin's sour natures begin to sweeten. For anyone who has ever felt afraid to live and love, The Secret Garden's portrayal of reawakening spirits will thrill and rejuvenate. Frances Hodgson Burnett creates characters so strong and distinct, young readers continue to identify with them even 85 years after they were conceived."-Matching ribbon marker.

CE2080. FROM THE PUBLISHER - When Mary Lennox was sent to Misselthwaite Manor to live with her uncle, everybody said she was the most disagreeable - looking child ever seen.' So begins the famous opening of one of the best - loved children's stories in the world. The tale of the lonely little girl, orphaned and sent to a Yorkshire mansion at the edge of a vast lonely moor, is a story that touches on the feelings of children everywhere. Mary's initial fear of this gloomy place is finally overcome by what she calls 'magic': the mystery of life itself - its birth and renewal, its love and joy. Focusing on Mary and her relationship with the sturdy local boy Dickon, who earns even the trust of the moor's wild animals with his honesty and love, and the invalid Colin, the spoiled, unhappy boy rejected by his father and terrified of life, THE SECRET GARDEN opens the door not only into a real hidden garden, but into the innermost places of the heart. It is a truly classic work that has left generations of readers with warm, lifelong memories of its very special charms. inventory #33621 Previous Owner's Name in Front & Some Browning To Inside Covers,Otherwise Very Good in Slightly Worn Wrappers With A Few Small Tears.
