This captivating version, adorned with stunning illustrations and interactive features crafted by the award-winning MinaLima design studio, is designed to charm both new readers and fans of the beloved film adaptations.
Follow the journey of Mary Lennox, a spoiled ten-year-old girl who, after being orphaned, is sent to the mysterious Misselthwaite Manor in Yorkshire. There, she lives with her distant uncle, Archibald Craven, in a home that feels as bleak as the moorland surrounding it. However, her curiosity is ignited when she learns about a hidden garden, once treasured by her late aunt, Mrs. Craven.
As Mary embarks on her quest to uncover this secret garden, she forms unexpected friendships with a charming robin redbreast, a kind-hearted boy named Dickon, and her reclusive cousin Colin. Together, they discover the transformative power of nature, friendship, and renewal, breathing new life into Misselthwaite Manor.
This deluxe edition of The Secret Garden is not just a book; it’s an invitation to explore the magic and mystery of the garden alongside Mary and her friends, making it a perfect gift for readers of all ages.

Sherlock & Pages is a little bookshop with a big heart. We are based in Frome, Somerset, England and curate lists of books in the areas we are passionate about – landscape, nature, history, and heritage. In short, the conservation of all we’ve inherited and all we are responsible to pass on. We aim to inspire and be inspired, to form a literary culture of care and passion about this precious planet we call home.
This is a shop where you might find something you haven’t seen before, and we like to think we’ve got something for everyone. We choose each of our books with care and for a reason. This is because our physical store is small but beautifully formed, holding only around 1200 titles at any one time. We try and recreate the feel of the shop wherever we are online, to reflect our niche categories and personality.
We have an active social media presence and aim to share our story with all our friends. The long-term goal is to build a hub for the books and writers we believe in. Who knows where our adventure will lead but by supporting Sherlock & Pages you’re helping us to add a further layer of magic to our little corner of the world. If you haven’t visited our physical store, one day you might just make a literary pilgrimage down to Somerset.
Our tagline is ‘Long Live the Hedgerows’ and our symbol a hibernating dormouse. If you want to support an independent with a unique character and which will share stories with you for years to come, then choose Sherlock & Pages. The world needs bookshops with soul, for they are ‘citadels of light.’
