Spring is still a few weeks off, but what better time to start dreaming of the possibilities... like secret gardens waiting to be found...
Gardens filled with robins guarding hidden keys...
... magical encounters with animals and good friends...
... and bulbs just starting to peek out from the shelter of the dirt.
...this wonderful classic by Frances Hodgson Burnett, with beautiful illustrations by Tasha Tudor, is a tale as timeless as they come. Curiosity, whimsy, adventure and friendship come together to create nothing short of pure magic.
With spring on the way I can't think of a better way to prepare than by reading (or re-reading) this classic book. Who knows, you may even be inspired to create a secret garden of your own...
Happy planting!
