This is an American classic about four children who are sent to stay with an elderly friend of their parents. They are sure they're in for a boring summer, until they discover that the thyme in the herb garden is magic. The children are transported to the American Civil War, Victorian England, and even end up meeting their own parents on one of the magical adventures they had when they were children.
