The Secret Garden is a classic. Great story ultimately about redemption. Burnett writes beautifully. Unfortunately the book referred was poor
 technically being miniature (3"x5' approx.) with print size consistent with the book dimension. Very disappointing presentation.  This is a book that
my children read and a movie they watched. This time it was my grandson (14) and a school reading project. I purchased a full sized copy at a local bookstore  with normal print.  As he got into it he agreed that it was worthwhile story about the need for love and caring in our lives. IN  SUMMARY, I highly recommend the story and the lessons to be learned from it BUT this particular small print version was a waste of money.  Don't buy. Go to a bookstore and treat yourself to a classic.
