The revelations in Hughes' book of the beatings and the burnings uncovered a system which had been all but hidden.Hughes had been a schoolboy at rugby school in the 1830s when the school was run by the educational reformer Dr. Thomas Arnold. Dr. Arnold's idealism transferred itself wholesale to the young Hughes, and the good doctor appears towards the end of Tom Brown's Schooldays as the young master, bearing the light of possible redemption.

Title: The Secret GardenAuthor: Frances Hodgson BurnettNarrator: Virginia McKennaFormat: UnabridgedLength: 7 hrs and 58 minsLanguage: EnglishRelease date: 11-18-15Publisher: silksoundbooks LimitedRatings: 4.5 of 5 out of 17 votesGenres: Classics, British LiteraturePublisher's Summary:What the Narnia books did for wardrobes, The Secret Garden did for the walled garden. Few readers can fail to share with Mary Lennox that inexplicable thrill of anticipation at the notion of an enclosed and secret world, bursting with potential life and beauty but remaining hidden from view.As Mary herself observes, 'Here was another locked door, added to the hundred in the strange house'. When she finds the key to the secret garden, she embarks on a journey of self-discovery and enables other characters in the novel to open doors and windows into their own lives, bringing vitality and vigour back to the inhabitants of Misselthwaite Manor.The author's interest in theosophy is perhaps reflected in the journey of the crippled Colin, who believes he can heal himself through positive thinking. And, as the roses return to the garden, so they bloom in Mary's cheeks - as she discovers an ancient and timeless magic that every gardener will recognise and understand.Published in 1909, it is one of Frances Hodgson Burnett's most popular novels with adults as well as children. It has been adapted countless times for stage and screen and spawned spin-offs and sequels all over the world.

Title: Black BeautyAuthor: Anna SewellNarrator: Colin SalmonFormat: UnabridgedLength: 5 hrs and 35 minsLanguage: EnglishRelease date: 11-13-15Publisher: silksoundbooks LimitedGenres: Classics, British LiteraturePublisher's Summary:This is one of the most famous children's books ever written. Since its publication in 1877, it has sold well over 30 million copies. It held the world record for sales far and above any other piece of children's literature for 130 years, until the year 1997, when a certain novel named Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone was published.It wasnt, however, written for children - the story of the highly spirited and gorgeous black stallion and his transfer from owner to increasingly abusive owner until his final happy rescue was originally intended to be a campaigning work distributed to those who worked with horses in the middle of the 19th century.But there was something about the story which led to its becoming one of the most successful pieces of children's literature ever written. The great success of Black Beauty was partly due to the novelty of telling the story from the horse's point of view, unheard of in 1877, when horses were not even supposed to have points of view. The clarity, simplicity and energy of that voice is still astonishing, but more astonishing in the 1870s was the public reaction to the book,. This gentle Quaker woman used the voice of a strong, black horse to undermine most of the assumptions of working Victorian Britain.

Title: Alice's Adventures in WonderlandAuthor: Lewis CarrollNarrator: Julia McKenzieFormat: UnabridgedLength: 2 hrs and 50 minsLanguage: EnglishRelease date: 11-02-15Publisher: silksoundbooks LimitedRatings: 5 of 5 out of 3 votesGenres: Classics, British LiteraturePublisher's Summary:Alice's rather wild adventures in Wonderland begin on an unadventurous picnic, when her attention, wandering off from the lesson it was supposed to be glued to, is caught by a passing white rabbit who happens to be wearing a waistcoat and muttering to himself, "Oh dear! Oh dear! I shall be too late!"As he disappears down a rabbit hole, and Alice, for want of anything better to do, follows him, a tale of almost hallucinogenic wildness unfolds as she finds herself in Wonderland - a fantastical world where the characters Alice meets and the situations in which she finds herself have the whiff of symbol and allegory about them but are too whimsical to be pinned down as such.The story of how Alice's Adventures in Wonderland came to be written, and the authors association with the Liddell family - and Alice Liddell in particular - is now the stuff of legend. One summer afternoon in 1862, the author, in the company of the Reverend Robinson Duckworth, took the three Liddell sisters, Lorina Charlotte, Alice Pleasance and Edith Mary, out in a rowing boat on the River Thames, near Oxford. On that boat trip, he entertained the girls by telling them a story about a bored little girl called Alice who goes looking for an adventure. Two years later, Alice's Adventures in Wonderland was published - and sold out rapidly.
