Great book, great narrator

This is the entire book, not an abridged version. The narrator has a pleasant voice, and used different voices for different characters.

My new very favorite book

Oh my goodness gracious. This is my new most favorite book. So magical and full of life. I'd seen the movie but never read the book until now. I just adore it.

An awesome book

Since I read this book a few years back I feel in love with it.

Magic!

This book is amazing! Magical story of childhood youthful amazement, friendships, and summer adventures that seem to change your life while they’re happening.

Pure Enchantment

Just when I thought that Amazon Classic audiobooks couldn’t get any better than the last one I listened to, I listened to “The Secret Garden.” A childhood favorite that I always loved. Now at 65 years old I find I am completely captivated by this wonderful production. The narration was superb, perfect in fact. And of course, the story is timeless. Well done, Amazon. I hope you continue to add to narrated Amazon Classics library.
