The Secret Garden The Story of the MovieHarperCollins Children’s Books has published the official film tie-in books for Heyday Films and StudioCanal’s remake of Frances Hodgson Burnett’s classic novel, The Secret Garden, scheduled for box office release on the 10 April 2020.

For younger readers, there's an edition beautifully illustrated by Adelina Lirius.

 

The movie of The Secret Garden has been vividly brought to life by writer Jack Thorne and director Marc Munden who join forces with a stellar cast including award-winning actors Colin Firth and Julie Walters.

 

The Secret Garden was first published in 1911 telling the story of Mary who discovers a hidden garden, full of magic and wonder, with the power to change lives. Thorne’s new version is set later than the original moving the period from the Edwardian era to 1947 on the eve of Partition in India and during the aftermath of the Second World War.

Linda Chapman's version is based on the film and her narrative makes a compelling read.
