The Secret Garden- Continued

My last post was about The Secret Garden and as I am still reading this book, I will be talking about this classic again. The start of the book really caught my attention and now that I am further into the book it is getting even better. I like how there is always something new and excitng around the corner.

The last post ended by saying hat Mary knew about the secret garden and wanted to try get inside. A lot has happened since then. A few times after that Mary heard someone crying in Missethwaite Manor (where she stays) but when she told Martha (one of the manor's maid servants who waits on Mary) and someone else they both said it couldn't be true. The crying matter is still a bit of a mystery at the moment. Mary at first didn't like Martha but because she is such a nice and funny character she couldn't help liking her.
Mary often walks around on the moor every day and one day, she finds the key that opens the door of the garden that has been locked up for ten years! She finds this key with the help of a robin who Mary becomes very good friends with. The robin belongs to a the gardener on the moor, Ben Weatherstaff. After she finds the key, the robin shows her the door to the secret garden which was hidden under thick ivy so she is able to go inside and have a lovely time looking at flower beds and doing some weeding.

The magical book is getting really exciting at the moment and I can't wait to find out more about what happens.
