I used to love watching this movie as a kid, and I'd often go out and play in our own garden pretending it was secret. Like I'd stepped into my own world of magic.
Reading this as an adult, it is such a good reminder to stop and smell the roses. To spend time in nature, to be present, to draw good energy towards you.
I loved reading about the character development in the story, and how the simple things in life (helping things grow, being outside, laughing) can change perspectives and help heal you.
