The Forgotten Garden

My 10 year old heart loves The Forgotten Garden. If you are a fan of The Secret Garden, but ready for a mature storyline, this is for you.

“On the eve of the First World War, a little girl is found abandoned on a ship to Australia. A mysterious woman called the Authoress had promised to look after her – but the Authoress has disappeared without a trace.”

The Forgotten Garden is a bittersweet tale of a lost – and found – little girl. There are two lost little girls, in fact.  Nell, who is found on a ship, and then Nell’s granddaughter Cassandra, who finds solace from her own difficult mother with Nell. At Nell’s death, Cassandra finds a suitcase with mysterious clues that might point to Nell’s original family. The story is told from the perspective of several characters; Nell, Cassandra, and the Authoress: the lady who promised to look after Nell and then disappeared.
