The Secret Garden - by Frances Hodgson Burnett
The Secret Garden, Garden Magic - A pop-up book, for younger kids
One Small Square Backyard - by Donald M. Silver
The Secret Garden Activity Kit - by Silver Dophin Books
This kit contains a beautifully illustrated book, a wood and metal trowel, a magnifying bug viewer, 20 wooden garden markers, and a set of 21 stickers for identifying your plants. The book offers over a dozen gardening projects and nature activities based on Frances Hodgson Burnett’s story The Secret Garden, with illustrations by best-selling artist Graham Rust. For ages 3 and up.
The Secret Garden Pop Up Book - by Breslich and Foss
This pop up book lets you create the whole Secret Garden by opening the book and tying the front and back covers together. It is an amazing book. I bought it years ago, but can only find it on used book sites now.
