One blustery afternoon, the wind whisks aside a curtain of overgrown ivy which had hid the entrance to an unknown garden from view. From that point onward the deserted garden takes firm root in Mary's imagination and she determines to find a way inside. Introduce children to the enchanting classic behind the popular motion picture and the Tony Award-winning play
