About this audiobook
Frances Hodgson Burnett's classic children's novel is about orphaned Mary Lennox, who is sent to live with her uncle at Misslethwaite Manor in Yorkshire. Initially a sour, bad-tempered child, Mary begins to bloom under the influence of nature when she discovers a long-abandoned garden on the grounds of her uncle's estate. Burnett's novel is brought to life by LibriVox volunteers who lend their voices to her characters.

Reviews for The Secret Garden (dramatic reading)

- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5One of my favorite stories of all time. But I'm not a huge fan of this reading of it. Ben weatherstaff, Colin and Mary and Dicken were read well enough but the Dr was terrible and the narrator was just reading with no passion for the exciting bits, almost like an automated voice. The BBC reading is MUCH better
