Description
• Three of Frances Hodgson Burnett's books for young readers are bound together in this Kindle book: The Secret Garden, The Lost Prince & Little Lord Fauntleroy
The Secret Garden
Mary Lennox is taken care of by her parent's servants so it is little wonder the 10-year-old is spoiled and prone to tantrums. Mary is left to fend for herself, however, when her parents die and she is sent to her relatives' home in Yorkshire, England. It is there that Mary discovers a secret garden which will change her life forever.
The Lost Prince
This book focuses on Marco Loristan, his father, and his friend called "The Rat". Marco's father, Stefan, is a Samavian patriot working to overthrow the cruel dictatorship in the kingdom of Samavia. Marco and his father come to London where Marco strikes up a friendship with a crippled street urchin known as The Rat. The friendship occurs when Marco overhears The Rat shouting in military form. Marco discovers he had stumbled upon a strangely militia-like club known as the Squad. Stefan, realizing that two boys are less likely to be noticed, entrusts them with a secret mission to travel across Europe giving the secret sign: 'The Lamp is lighted.
Little Lord Fauntleroy
Cedric Errol is living with his mother in genteel poverty in America when Captain Errol. English lawyer Havisham visits with a message: Cedric has now become Lord Fauntleroy, heir to the Earldom and a vast estate. But before long, a rival appears who wants to rob Cedric of his inheritance.
About The Author
Frances Eliza Hodgson Burnett (1849 –1924) was an English author best known for her children's stories, in particular Little Lord Fauntleroy and The Secret Garden (1911). She was born near Manchester, England and her father died in in 1852 when she was a toddler. The family emigrated to the United States and settled near Knoxville, Tennessee, where Frances began writing to help earn money for the family. In 1870 her mother died and in 1872 she married Swan Burnett, who became a medical doctor. They moved to Paris for two years and had two sons before returning to live in Washington D.C. Little Lord Fauntleroy was published in 1886 and made her a popular writer of children's fiction.
