DescriptionThe third in a series of fold-out concertina gift titles that tell world-famous stories in 16 panels, illustrated by American artist Becca Stadtlander. Every title in this series is like a visual 'spark notes': a learning tool that simplifies plots into bite-sized pieces, and doubles as a beautiful piece of freestanding art to shelve or frame. The Secret Garden visualises Frances Hodgson Burnett's classic children's story of young orphan Mary Lennox, whose life is transformed when she discovers the key to a hidden garden.
