The much-loved tale read by generations  of                        children, now  annotated and with over one   hundred stunning illustrations.  Frances Hodgson Burnett was famous in her time  for her adult novels and her forays into  children's literature with Little Lord  Fauntleroy and A Little Princess. The  Secret Garden, her story of an orphan girl  who moves from India to the British countryside, has become a favorite book of every generation  thereafter. Gretchen Holbrook Gerzina, the  author of the definitive biography of Burnett,  brings out aspects of Burnett's life that led  her to write the book, details of the Victorian  England time period, attitudes toward children,  and Burnett's spiritual leanings. Gerzina  captures the magical nature of the tale and the  coming together of three children through  restoring a hidden garden. With over one hundred illustrations, many in vibrant color, The  Annotated Secret Garden is an enchanting  gift for any child or for any adult who is still a feisty child underneath. .
