AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'Successful author, Jack Crane has written a book set in the beautiful garden of the house where he lived as a ten-year-old: a garden full of mystery, secrets and challenges. The story is of an unhappy child who discovers that the ornaments in this special place come to life when night falls and how they welcome him into their world of magic, hope and friendship. Jack's children believe their father when he tells them that the story is just a fantasy, until one day when Mia, the six-year-old daughter, confronts her father: 'Daddy, I saw one of them. She ran away when I said your name. But she was real. I know she was!' (Publication summary)
