Favourite book from childhood


This was a hard choice because I have a few that I love, but fell in love this book when I think I was in 4th grade, we read it as a class, and I just loved it. There is just something delightful about Mary finding a secret neglected garden and bringing it back to life. It is also somewhat Gothic in nature, although I didn't know it at the time, with Mary hearing strange sounds which nobody will tell her the source of, and forbidden rooms, etc. And for a book that was written in 1910, and set in the Victorian time period, it holds up really well, and is still a delightful read

I LOVED this book growing up! I think I read it until the binding came undone.
