Misselthwaite Manor is owned by Mary’s uncle, Archibald Craven. Overcome with grief due to his wife’s passing, he has no time for his niece.

Archibald’s son, Colin, is Mary’s cousin. Bedridden with a mysterious illness, Colin never leaves his room.

The manor is run by this stern housekeeper. Always suspicious, Mrs. Medlock takes an instant dislike to Mary.

A maid at Misselthwaite, Martha is good-hearted and gives Mary advice when she needs it most.

Dickon meets Mary and a friendship blossoms. With his help, and the magic of the garden, he and Mary heal Hector’s injured paw.

Wonderous flowers bloom to life, reaching their leaves and petals out to Mary and Dickon as they run through the secret garden.

Mary is determined to get Colin to the secret garden so he can experience its power for himself. She wonders if the bubbling waters within the garden will heal her cousin, just like it healed Hector.

Mary and Dickon sneak Colin to the garden’s stream, where they dip him in the cool, majestic waters.

The power of the garden heals Colin! Standing on his own, he asks to see his father.

Archibald is astonished to see his wife’s garden bursting with life and love. It is here that a father and son are reunited after years of heartbreak.

Through love, a family has formed. The garden has shown Mary, Dickon, Colin, and Hector the power to change lives, including their own.
