A self-willed and unsociable little girl from rich family, Mary, became an orphan due to a sudden plague. She was sent to and adopted by a relative's family living in an ancient manor in the UK. Her temperament became plain gradually in the quiet and remote countryside among unsophisticated villagers. On one late night, he was brought to a little child as weird and lonely as her by following the faint cry coming from one end of the corridor of the mysterious manor. Mary's cousin, the little master of the manor Colin, was born weak. He had been sick in bed for many years. He was sullen in nature and unpredictable. In order to help Colin, Mary took him into the secret garden in the manor that had been closed for years. The children played in the vigorous little world without disturbance, learned to be friendly to others and restored the nature of purity and happiness. It was a garden closed because of involving the memory of death. Now, it was open again due to the vigor radiated by new lives in it. It is the secret of the natural force and the miracle of vitality.
