Considered a masterpiece since its first appearance on stage in 1904, Peter Pan is J. M. Barrie’s most famous work and arguably the greatest of all children’s stories. While it is a wonderful fantasy for the young, Peter Pan, particularly in the novel form Barrie published in 1911, says something important to all of us. Here “the boy who wouldn’t grow up” and his adventures with Wendy and the lost boys in the Neverland evoke a deep emotional response as they give form to our feelings about parents, boys and girls, the unknown, freedom, and responsibility. Humorous, satiric, filled with suspenseful cliff-hangers and bittersweet truths, Peter Pan works an indisputable magic on readers of all ages, making it a true classic of imaginative literature.

      Short sentences and brief chapters move this adaptation of the classic story of a boy who refused to grow up right along, but the oversimplified story loses its magic. Far better to either read the story aloud or introduce the original to a child when they're ready to read it on their own. Black-and-white drawings appear throughout.

      Barrie's classic story is retold for beginning readers in a choppy, stilted style. The accompanying pencil illustrations are stiff and awkward.
