Movie Review: Back to the Secret Garden

One of my most favorite books as a child was The Secret Garden by Frances Hodges. I love that story and have shared that love with my children. So I was interested when the recommendation popped ujp for me to borrow "Back to the Secret Gardne" when I was perusing Netflix.

I am always leary about sequels, especially ones written not based on a book. Who knows where this could go and what they would do with/to this magical place.

I want you to know that if you haven't seen this movie, I highly recommend it! This story takes place when Mary and Martha are grown women. Mistlethwait Manor is now a home for orphans. And The Secret Garden is not doing so well. It takes a girl from the other side of the pond to return the magic to the garden and she has to overcome obstacles to do it.

This is a wonderful story and Katrina and I really enjoyed watching it. We give it a two thumbs up!
