Peter Pan & Peter Pan in Kensington Gardens by J.M Barrie

Welcome to the forgotten shelf. This is day 2!
Watch the video for today, here or here.

Peter Pan in short
Peter Pan, the book based on J. M. Barrie’s famous play, is filled with unforgettable characters: Peter Pan, the boy who would not grow up; the fairy, Tinker Bell; the evil pirate, Captain Hook; and the three children-Wendy, John, and Michael-who fly off with Peter Pan to Neverland, where they meet Indians and pirates and a crocodile that ticks.

Peter Pan in Kensington Gardens in short
Peter Pan in Kensington Gardens by J.M. Barrie. Peter Pan, the boy who refused to grow up, is one of the immortals of children’s literature. J.M. Barrie first created Peter Pan as a baby, living in secret with the birds and fairies in the middle of London, but as the children for whom he invented the stories grew older, so too did Peter, reappearing in Neverland, where he was aided in his epic battles with Red Indians and pirates by the motherly and resourceful Wendy Darling. With their contrary lures of home and escape, childhood and maturity, safety and high adventure, these unforgettable tales are equally popular with children and adults.

My Thoughts
As I said in the video, I really do not like the cover of this book. Which isn’t the most important thing but still.

I enjoyed Peter Pan the most; I thought it was quite sweet. Peter Pan in Kensington Gardens was actually quite sad as we learn Peter’s backstory. The movie did follow the book quite well, I must say. The book is quite obviously dated, but I still think it was nice. I am glad I read the book, but I would not necessarily read it again.

That was the forgotten shelf for today. I’ll see you tomorrow.
