Sinopse
Mary Lennox, an overindulged child suddenly orphaned, is almost magically transformed into an agreeable child when she comes to live at Misselthwaite Manor, the gloomy Yorkshire estate owned by her reclusive uncle, Archibald Craven. Whith the help of Dickon, an unusual local youngster with the ability to charm nature, Mary not only manages to bring life and beauty to the secret garden - abandoned years ago when the mistress of the manor was fatally injured there - but also persuades Colin, her uncle's frail son, to lead a normal life.
