The Secret Garden #1491, #3112. Mary Lennox, an ill-tempered orphan is sent to live in England with an uncle she has never met. While there she discovers a spoiled invalid cousin named Colin and a long-abandoned garden. This garden is behind high walls and is filled with thick plants and lifeless roses. Working to restore this mysterious, hidden garden, she finds she also cures her own ill temper and reforms her cousin as well. She uses it to teach her cousin to walk. Her uncle, who is out of town, returns to find happiness once again in his home. The lesson taught is that happiness can be found in one's own backyard.
