About this listen

Jenna-Louise Coleman reads The Secret Garden, one of the best-loved stories of all time.

When newly orphaned Mary Lennox is sent to live at Misselthwaite Manor with her uncle, she is determined to be miserable. But she finds a lonely house which is full of mystery. There's her sad Uncle Archibald, her cousin, Colin, who believes he's dying, and then there's Dickon, a local boy. Together they discover a locked and secret garden and their great adventure begins.

As the garden slowly works its magic Mary, Colin, Dickon and even her uncle Archibald all begin to change. This is part of AudioGO's 'Famous Fiction' range.

I wish it was the full version. She read it well and it was a reasonable abridgment of novel.

It was ok but I think they could of done a bit more of a story but overall it was a great story. My favourite bit was when he ran into his father’s arms it was so heart full.

It’s pretty good. BUT MARY IS SUCH A BRAT! And why did they (In the picture) make Mary Lennox white. I’m very disappointed with that. “I don’t want boys”? I was legit thinking (🏳️‍🌈and I support LGBTQIA+🏳️‍🌈) “Hmmm what if Mary Lennox was lesbian?” But anyway I felt like I was there in the blue, in the secret garden 🪴✨. That’s my review.
P.S. Martha is such a nice lady😩❤️✨

For an abridged version, it's quite good. The narrator's voice fits the text and it's enjoyable.

I assumed it was just the first chapter or two when I saw the time, but discovered after reading a review that it’s abridged. It’s still a nice story but Not what I thought it was.

Needs to be clear that this is abridged
