Tom's Midnight Garden
by Philippa Pearce
This is exactly the type of low fantasy I loved as a kid. You have the normal, everyday, mundane world, and then, suddenly, you open a door to another one. It isn't a door to witches, talking lions, or even dragons, but to a quieter, more sedate world—a secret garden—complete with a little playmate, even. This is a very charming, sweet story, grounded in the everyday details of midcentury England, of the tea and stiff upper lip variety.
