The Secret Garden
by Frances Hodgson Burnett
When orphaned Mary Lennox is sent to a bleak Yorkshire manor, she discovers a garden that has been locked for ten years. As she coaxes it back to life she brings herself — and a hidden, sickly cousin — back to life too. A gentle story about nature, patience and finding a purpose.

What's in the pack
This is a gentle, Charlotte-Mason-style study built for families teaching different ages together — a core plan for Years 7–9, a lighter touch for Years 5–6, and a GCSE-style extension for Years 10–11. The study guide gives the parent the plan (readings, narration, and links to history, art, geography and nature study); the pupil booklet gives the child a day-by-day companion with room to respond; and the slides introduce and structure the study.
Looking for the day-to-day too?
