Overview

This unique collection of Burnetts greatest works includes: "The Secret Garden" - It tells an inspirational tale of transformation and empowerment. Mary Lennox, a sickly and contrary little girl, is orphaned to dim prospects in a gloomy English manor - her only friend is a bed-ridden boy named Colin whose prospects may be dimmer than hers. But when Mary finds the key to a Secret Garden, the magical powers of transformation fall within her reach. "A Little Princess" - Sara Crewe, a pupil at Miss Minchins London school, is left in poverty when her father dies, but is later rescued by a mysterious benefactor. "Little Lord Fauntleroy" - Cedric Errol is a poor American boy who finds out that he is the sole heir to a wealthy British earldom and thus becomes Lord Fauntleroy. "The Making of a Marchioness" - It was originally published in two parts: the first tells the fairy tale-like story of how our heroine, Emily Fox-Seton, became the Marchioness of Walderhurst. The second, originally titled The Methods of Lady Walderhurst, is a down-to-earth portrayal of the realities of Victorian marriage, with a bit of a Victorian sensation vibe to it. Frances Eliza Hodgson Burnett (1849 – 1924) was an English-American playwright and author. She is best known for her childrens stories, in particular Little Lord Fauntleroy , A Little Princess, and The Secret Garden.
