Was looking for the copy with the original illustrations as my kids are still young and enjoy that.
Enter the world of Frances Hodgson Burnett
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
I have five children, and I read The Secret Garden to my oldest two years ago. My oldest daughter read The Little Princess herself, and she recommended that I read it to my youngest three. After I finished reading The Secret Garden to the youngest three last spring, I went on a quest to read more Frances Hodgson Burnett. Of the three, I think the little girls prefer The Little Princess. I'm partial to The Secret Garden and Little Lord Fauntleroy. I thought it was interesting how Burnett insists that her heroines look `queer,' but her hero, Lord Fauntleroy is beautiful. I wonder if that's because she had a son? The description of the characters and their surroundings is mesmerizing, and you hate for it all to end. I would highly recommend buying this set of the three stories for that reason. You'll want to read them again after you've finished. That's why I include it in my 10 favorite children's books of all time.

I feel that the boog was wonderful. I laughed, I cried, and I smiled not knowing what was going out. I loved the book more then a pugy child likes his/her cake!
