Review quotes
"Behind the Secret Garden Door written and illustrated by Sandy Leigh is a delightful story about Teddy the Westie and his adventure on a day when his human "sister" Charlotte goes off to school. Teddy is an inquisitive Westie and decides to explore when he hears a high pitch sound outside.
"He finds a giant hole dug under his secret garden door and pokes his head in to see what he can see.
"He slips, and then his adventures begin with several interesting characters living in the Secret Garden. He meets flinches and frogs and a regal butterfly and they all warn him of the potential danger lurking in the garden... The Red Fox. This beautifully illustrated story appeals to a child's curiosity, imagination and sense of adventure. It teaches camaraderie and kindness. Certainly, a wonderful book to add to any child's collection and a great story to read out loud and admire the beautiful artwork."
