The Secret Garden, Colin
Crying in the night traced to a hidden room, a boy who believes he cannot live, and a cousin who disagrees.
Retold for sleep from The Secret Garden by Frances Hodgson Burnett, first published in 1911 and long out of copyright. The story is Burnett's; every sentence here is our own.

Tender and reassuring, steady when things aren't, present and calm without ever overpromising.
