A transformatiol and empowering story is told in The Secret Garden. Her only acquaintance is a bedridden kid med Colin, whose future may be even bleaker than Mary Lennox's. Mary Lennox is a sickly and rebellious young girl orphaned to low prospects in a gloomy English manor. However, Mary is able to access the transformatiol magic when she discovers the secret garden's key. Frances Hodgson Burnett published her first children's book, A Little Princess, in 1905. It is an updated and expanded version of Burnett's Sara Crewe, a novel that was serialised in 1888. When Sara Crewe's father passes away, she is left in a state of poverty at Miss Minchin's London school but is later helped by an unidentified donor.
