A very sweet Pakistani-angled retelling of The Secret Garden. It's pretty sad and deals with parental grief as Maria adjusts to life on a new continent and away from any family she knows or feels close to. It also has good themes of friendship for kids learning how to navigate those relationships.
Moderate: Death of parent
