A review by lyle
The Secret Garden by Frances Hodgson Burnett

4.0

I had last read this book about 12 years ago when I was in elementary. It still has the same charm. I think when exposing children to this book it is impertinent to address the racist aspects. It opens up the possibility to discuss the history of colonial Britain and India (as well as colonialism on a broader scale).
The book is endearing and an easy read to return to.
