Tom's Midnight Garden by Philippa Pearce

Lying awake at night, Tom hears the old grandfather clock downstairs strike ...eleven ...twelve ...thirteen ...Thirteen! When Tom gets up to investigate, he discovers a magical garden. A garden that everyone told him doesn't exist. A garden that only he can enter ...A Carnegie-Medal-winning modern classic that's magically timeless.
