  When Mary Lennox - an ill-tempered and lonely orphan - is sent to live with her gloomy uncle in England, her prospects for a bright future are dim. Her only companions are her cousin Colin, who is wheelchair bound, and the local boy Dickon Sowerby and none of the children seem to have anything in common. 
  But when Mary discovers a hidden door leading to a concealed (though neglected) garden, everything changes. As the three children work on the garden and it begins to thrive, the children's friendships deepen, their happiness increases and even Colin's health begins to improve. But the mystery remains: Whose garden is it?

  Jacob Riis was determined to improve the living conditions of the poor—to fill their dark, ramshackle places with sunlight and soft, green grass. Places where children could play. After immigrating to New York City and working as a news reporter, Jacob was deeply affected by the poverty  
  surrounding him, especially in the tenements: 
   
  • Cramped rooms bursting with too many people  
  • Kerosene and mold stench choking the air  
  • Children playing in filthy streets 
   
  But how could Jacob inspire change? Using a special flash powder, Jacob Riis photographed the dark, overcrowded buildings and their impoverished residents, shining light in their rooms for the world to see—and changing the lives of tenement children and their families for the better.
