Review: Book was in good condition as stated. And arrived early. I bought it for my grandchild and read it first and was please with this book. I first heard about it on the cbc radio. Review: After reading this magical novel, my only regret is that I was unaware of it when I was a child. Tom’s Midnight Garden is filled with imagination. The author has infused Tom Long with the curiosity, impatience, and determination of youth. Though respectful to his aunt and uncle, who have graciously taken him into their home while his brother recovers from the measles, Tom is adventurous and refuses to spend summer as a quiet guest. Upon finishing the book, three things occurred to me. There’s No Real Bad Guy As most children will tell you when recalling their favorite fairy tales, there’s always a bad guy. And that’s because the hero never starts off as a hero. He must discover in himself powers he never knew he had—usually by defeating his enemy. But in this story, Tom revels in a newly found freedom and sense of wonder by spending time in the garden with Hatty. The closest this book comes to a bad guy is Hatty’s aunt. Though severe, she isn’t all that bad. After all, she’s provided a home for the girl and, despite her conviction that her sons come first, she is not a monster. Time Can Be an Enemy or a Friend The annoying grandfather clock that cannot seem to tell time properly provides the means by which Tom travels into the past to meet Hatty. Mostly, Tom uses this bit of sorcery to his advantage, visiting and revisiting his friend in different seasons. He even figures out how to have Hatty hide a pair of ice skates for him to find in his own time so that he can go ice skating with her in the past. Sheer brilliance! But Time can also be an enemy of sorts. Tom cannot control it, nor can he determine when the adventure will end. And when it does, the boy is devastated. He wasn’t even able to say goodbye properly. The grandfather clock no longer permits him to go back, and he is left with only memories of Hatty at different ages, from girl to young woman. Dreams Can Create Powerful Connections Toward the end, when Tom is with Hatty, and she is all grown up, his brother magically appears and can see her, too. It’s because Tom has been writing daily to Peter about his adventures. And Peter’s imagination seems to be as vivid as his brother’s, thus transporting him into Hatty’s world. Tom’s Midnight Garden is a must-read for adults and children alike. Every page is filled with warmth, with each character—major and minor—lovingly drawn. It is a coming-of-age story, with Tom gaining an early appreciation for life through the eyes of a lonely girl growing into a confident young woman. And finally, it’s a story of friendship, forged in a garden as timeless as imagination itself. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #34,066 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #46 in Paranormal Fantasy for Children #338 in Science Fiction for Children #354 in Horror, Monsters & Ghost Stories for Children | | Customer reviews | 4.7 4.7 out of 5 stars (308) | | Dimensions | 13 x 1.63 x 19.35 cm | | Edition | Illustrated | | Grade level | Preschool - 2 | | ISBN-10 | 0062696580 | | ISBN-13 | 978-0062696588 | | Item weight | 1.05 Kilograms | | Language | English | | Print length | 320 pages | | Publication date | 3 April 2018 | | Publisher | Greenwillow Books | | Reading age | 8 - 12 years | ## Images ![Tom's Midnight Garden - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/A19hLPSa3gL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by M***Y on 4 September 2020* Book was in good condition as stated.
