The Secret Garden | Full Audiobook unabridged | Yorkshire English * relax * asmr * sleep audiobook

Welcome to my complete The Secret Garden audiobook : full & unabridged. The classic written by Frances Hodgson Burnett (1910) is read & produced by me with genuine Yorkshire accents. This complete audio book in British English has a "Raw Reading" style with page turning & a soothing atmosphere to help one relax & sleep, while maybe even appealing to those that enjoy ASMR. Musical interludes are "Waltz of the Flowers" by Tchaikovsky (1892).

Not familiar with The Secret Garden? It is an absolute beauty and my reading, editing and even equipment improves with time so stick with it. I'm sure you'll fall in love with this wonderful story too! Some of the characters are divine and Burnett's writing is simply brilliant!

I am particularly fond of her love and appreciation of nature. These days I feel that a concern for our environment is arguably more important than ever before. This story teaches children and adults alike to respect our world and to take pleasure in the "simple" things.

NOTE:
For anyone wondering about the quiet spot roughly between 3:54:00 and 3:57:00 - this was intentional.
- There are actually the soft sounds of rainfall, which is particularly clear with headphones. In fact, the entire chapter has the sounds of a storm in the background!
- Originally I recorded and shared The Secret Garden on my old channel two chapters at a time, but had a problem with my microphone when recording ch.13, so decided to make it a special video by mixing in a recording of a thunder storm that was hammering away that same afternoon.
- For the complete version of this audiobook I didn't want to re-record the chapter as I very much liked my reading of it, so decided to leave the rainstorm and let it play on afterwards to act as a little calming interval half-way through the book.

So again thank you for listening! I hope you've had a wonderful experience with a magical story.

I'm Faith and I'm 9 years old. My dad (Ian) and I have been listening to this book for a month now, and I LOVE So heartwarming! ❤😍❤😍❤

[FaithBarbac]

My mom is 82. She is 90% blind. Because of the pandemic, she doesnt get to visit places so I looked for audiobooks on youtube to keep her imaginations alive. Thank you for this.

[nadiazayman]

At last, a reader that allows for a pause in between phrases. Makes all the difference when there is air in between the words!

[talking.to.my.selfie.]

15 years in using audibooks.... This is by far the best reading I've ever heard. Accent, giving each character a different voice turning the pages, music, comments... You're exceptional✅ ten stars

[jrivers]

I'm a middle-aged Appalachian hillbilly, but this has been and shall remain my absolute favorite book of all time. It takes me away from my hellish reality and drops me right outside Mistlethwaite.

[doloresgiusto]

When I was eight my mother died in Venice and books become my escape from sorrow. “Il giardino segreto” was my favorite. I never read it again not to spoil its “magic”. Now 73, alone in lockdown, I have enjoyed your gorgeous tender Yorkshire English rendition with all my heart and “happy” tears. Thank you and bless you. D

[loulou]

I was adopted at age 5 by awful people and used this book as an escape after finding a copy at my adopted grandparents house when I was around 10/11, I made it out at 14 and thought I'd never be able to face this story again because although it helped me through a hard time I feared that it could be trigger bad memories. However listening to you read it is as much an escape from the crazy world right now as me reading it to escape my crazy world back then. Thankyou so much!

[cricket]

You have made so many people’s lives better through your reading. We are all immensely grateful.

[Lucytheplantwitch]

this audiobook is carrying me through days and days of my migraine attacks and i'm so grateful.
when exciting documentaries, political content or shorts are too much for me i can always come here to your calm voice, telling an engaging story without too much tension or stress in it.
thank you

[evangelinemanickam]

I turned to Audiobooks when I was diagnosed with glaucoma a year ago. But I couldn't find the same joy or satisfaction as when reading a book for myself. With the eyes free to wander, the mind would soon follow. I found you in the Secret Garden when I decided to try a childhood favourite( I will turn 70 in a month). What a delicious voice and Yorkshire accent! Your reading has been both entertaining as well as calming. I haven't been able to drag myself away, just as I couldnt put the book down as a child. Exploring your channel, I must say I was pleasantly surprised to see the real you. More power to you, young, handsome, ponytailed lover of literature. God Bless you.

A hot cup of tea, sewing a quilt for my granddaughter and this, my favorite story being read by you. I am delighted to have found this soothing version. Your presentation and music interspersed is relaxing and timeless! Thank you.

[marialouisa]

I quite have severe depression.
Picking up books, although quite lovely, is dreadfully hard to venture. You’re superb reading style has put a smile as wide as the Dickens on my face! Thank you so kindly for your lovely time and devotions to reading and feeding creativity and imagination in others.

[inexhaustiblereceiver]

This recording should be labelled with a "Gentle depression therapy" warning sign :) Yes, it was therific. And delightful. And lovely.

[AriaLeGreat]

Nearly twenty years ago, I was assigned to read this book for grade school. I hated it, and never made it past the first chapter. I’m really happy I didn’t finish it then. This being the first time I completed it, I’m so grateful that I could experience it to its fullest extent. I could feel the enjoyment from the narrator and the characters, and the book simply came to life. Truly this brought me so much peace and contentment over the past weekend, and this is definitely one of my new all time favorites

[GratefulamI]

Two years ago, my sister went in for surgery that didn't go as expected and resulted in me becoming her care giver. That is when I started listening to your audiobook of The Secret Garden. I desperately needed to calm my mind so I could sleep. Although my sister has gratefully recovered, I still find I have to listen to this audiobook every night. It's like a warm well-loved blanket. I don't want to listen to any other audiobooks unless it's your voice. I love everything you did for this recording. As other comments have noted, your comments during the recording and hearing pages turning, all add to the mastery of this recording. You are a marvelous wonder. 💖

[audiobooks]

The one who is reading this comment i wish you a life full of love happiness and success.

[deniseweavinghannah]

This reading reminds me that there can be healing of the human spirit when it has been broken.

[myriamkumpen]

Thank you so much for reading this book so beautifully. I like how you bring every character to live with your voice. I also have much love for plants and wild animals so the story itself also spoke to me.

[helgasaintpierre]

The gentle voice and wonderful Yorkshire lilt make this reading of the classic truly outstanding. As a child, my mother read to me daily; fairy tales, poems and other stories as I aged. When she went blind, I read to her for many years and then to my children and they in turn to theirs. It is a wonderful respite from today's noise and overstimulation. You have the gift of a gentle voice and sympathetic style which simply adds to the magic of storytelling. Bravo, bravo, bravissimo!
