I think this book is quite good.It is about a girl named Mary who is awfully haughty. She lives in India and has many slaves.
But her caretakers die and she is sent to live in England with her uncle, a rich hunchback who has about one hundred rooms locked up .
Her uncle's wife is dead so her garden is locked up and the key is buried.
What happens when Mary finds the secret garden and finds out that her uncle has a son?
