The key to the secret garden
------Book report of The Secret Garden Introduction (author, background, introduction about the book)
Few children’ classic can match the charm and originality of Frances Hodgson Burnett’ THE SECRET GARDEN, the unforgettable story of sullen, sulky Mary
Lennox,” the most disagreeable—looking child ever seen”. Let’s talk about the author
Burnett was a famous writer, and especially she was one of best writer of child. No one has the rich imagination like her, no one understanding the world of children like her, no one can tell the story better than her. However, the most important things is that, there is a tie between her heart and children’ heart. Burnett’s pen like a magic stick, it can change the reality into fairy tales.
Next I will introduce the general situation for you. When a cholera epidemic leaves her an orphan, Mary is sent to England to live with her reclusive uncle,
Archibald Craven, at Misselthwaite Manor. Unloved and unloving, Mary wanders the desolate moor until one day she chances upon the door of a secret garden. At the same time, she also find a sickly and tyrannical boy—her cousin, Colin. She also makes a friend with a peasant boy named Dicken. When Mary and Dicken know Colin is a disable, they didn’t laugh at him, but comfort him on the contrary, did things for him, and shared happiness and sadness with him. T hey three are just like one family, in harmony cheerful life of three people. They got together to find the key of the secret garden. During the journey, we can the changes about the Mary. She understands the warm and cold about the world, resurges the garden, and helps Colin stand up again. Meanwhile, Mary starts to accept others’ advices. During this time, Mary changes her bad temper into good temper. And her uncle also changed, when he feels the warm love from his son and Mary, the snow that covered his heart continuously melt.
Impressed most (character and chapter)
The most impressed character is Mary---the kind, positive, brave and beautiful girl.
To be honest, when I meet her at the beginning of The Secret Garden, is a spoiled, unattractive, petulant ten-year-old girl, and then I witness her change qualitatively.
I can image that a ugly duckling convert into a swan. It is not so much her beauty as her talents makes me love her.
The most impressed chapter is a small part. In the chapter of Magic: the seeds Dicken and Mary had planted grew as if fairies had tended them. Satiny poppies of all tints danced in the breeze by the score, gaily defying flowers which had lived in the garden for years and which it might be confessed seemed to wonder how such new people had got there. And the rose—the rose! Rising out of the grass, tangled round the sun-dial, wreathing the tree trunks and hanging from their branches, climbing up the walls and spreading over them with long garlands falling in cascades—they came alive day by day, hour by hour. Fair fresh leaves, and buds—and bud—tiny at first but swelling and working Magic until they burst and uncurled into cups of scent delicately spilling themselves over their brims and filling the garden air.
I like this chapter because three reasons. Firstly, this chapter is very important in this whole book. Connecting the foregoing and introduce the following. It is a tie between before and last. Secondly, this words and phrases in this paragraph are very beautiful and delicately. Thirdly, from this paragraph I can see the hope and happiness. The three children get together and share happiness. So I like this chapter and impressed most.
Personal understanding
This is a foreign masterpiece. This story content is very wonderful, lets person have feeling very much after read it. This book first public in 1911, I always thinks, why some books can be liked by people for such a long time? As for as I know the important reason is nourishment that this book given children. This book can give people comprehensions and happiness, both children and adults. At the same time, adult always ignore the pleasure, even abandon pleasure. Mr.Carven decided to bury the key of the garden and forget this thing. He hushes the secret up and nobody knows it. So he lost happiness, lost love.
The secret garden talks about the friendship, determination and perseverance. It is filled with the passion and enthusiasm to life. The book tells us something about attitude to life. If you want your life full of successes, you must have a good attitude and good character.
I like the book because it is a happy ending. Everyone breaks away the secret garden in their heart. In my opinion, there is a secret in everyone’ heart in which there are something like bad memories or sad experience that they do not want other know it. So as a friend, we should find the key to open the door of the secret garden use our love, our heart and let our friends feel warm and happy. Then the garden will be full of love. What’s more, we should open our door of our heart to get on well with our surrounding. Why do people respect some great people? Because of their great soul and spirits. They are kind to everyone. They do everything in a happy mood. They like to help others.
Edison has said so: good book is the author left to the human gift. This how a good book in that kind of a story? So I believe the secret garden is a good book.
