Zkrácené, upravené vydání vydání Mary je ošklivá, protivná, rozmazlená a všichni o ní říkají jen to nejhorší. Když osiří, je poslána ke strýci na ponuré panství, jehož chodbami se v noci nese žalostný nářek. Dům však stojí uprostřed nádherné anglické krajiny, v níž žije v chudé chaloupce malý Dickon, který dokáže rozmlouvat se zvířaty, a čeho se dotkne, to začne kvést. Mary s jeho pomocí nejenže odhalí původce tajuplného pláče, ale promění téměř mrtvou zahradu v kouzelný kout vyzařující nadpřirozenou, oživující sílu. Podaří se jí zvrátit neblahý osud, vznášející se nad panstvím už celá léta?
