"And they both began to laugh over nothing as children will when they are happy together. And they laughed so that in the end they were making as much noise as if they had been two ordinary, healthy natural, two-year-old creatures - instead of a hard, little, unloving girl and a sickly boy who believed that he was going to die."

This was my first experience with The Secret Garden, and I loved it to bits!
Such a cute story about what some focus on the right things can do for yourself and your surroundings.
I loved the characters and how they grew, and man... I wish I could visit that garden!

Gotta admit this was one from my childhood that I just didn’t love as an adult. Maybe it was the audio of the one that I listened to but it was tough to get past the privileged whining of Mary and general attitude of Colin. (I get that they have hardships but man do they just come off as brats for most of the book.) I mean, it’s great that the garden’s “magic” sorta fixes them I guess but it took an awful lot to get there. As a kid I think I loved it mostly because I loved the *idea* of a secret garden. As an adult it’s tougher to get through the main characters to enjoy it - except Dickon, he’s obviously cool and would be a fun hang.
