Evaluation: 4 stars

I enjoyed this story. At first, I thought she was not cute. I hated her. But since she found a key of the secret garden, she changed gradually. I enjoyed this change.And I was pleased when she helped her friend.She looked very cute. I want a garden like the secret garden. I want to grow some plants. I think beautiful plants can heal my strain.
