Beautiful illustrations!

"I bought this wonderful classic for my 9 year old daughter. The illustrations are beautiful and interesting. My daughter loves reading it and stops to explore the pictures. Highly recommend this version over the smaller novels. This book will be handed down for generations to come 🥰"

So sad yet so beautiful

"This story is about a young English girl named Mary Lennox who has to return to England from India due to losing her parents to illness. But Mary hasn't had a very good childhood, her parents would neglect her a lot. Mary is sent to live with her uncle Craven whom she has never met before. Once she arrived at Misselthwaite manor located in Yorkshire, Mary's life changes from sunny India to gloomy Yorkshire. Mary isn't a very nice little girl, she has very rude and hard-headed and has tantrums a lot. Once at Misselthwaite manor her behaviour changes gradually due to her uncle having stick rules around the manor. when her uncle is away from the manor one afternoon mary finds a garden that is always locked. mary is very intrigued and needs to fin the key. Misselthwaite manor is full of mysteries to be found. REVIEW: This book is one of my favourites of all time. I love the story it's beautiful/sad it gives all the emotions. I love how Mary grows and becomes a happier child while staying in England. I love the details of the gardens and everything. It really makes you feel like your there. Also how the relationships of the characters in the story come together. This book is for people that like historical fiction."
