The Secret Garden by Frances Hodgson Burnett
The Secret Garden, by Frances Hodgson Burnett, is one of my
favorite book that I have ever read so far; the plot, the description of the
scenery, and characters had me absolutely captivated. It was so much fun to
follow through the adventures of a little girl and how she changed from one
thing to another; the way the author worded every sentence blended perfectly
with the story. However, as amazing as a book this is, I wouldn't recommend it
for just anyone; to feel personally connected with it, this book needs to be
read by true lovers of nature and life, who have a thirst for adventure and
curiosity. I don't think that just anyone would feel the same way as I do about
it. That being said, if you are a person who enjoys a good story, I would
definitely recommend it. But, as a personal lover of classic books, I've felt a
deep connection with his book and it will remain one of the best books to me until
I read another one almost as good as this.
