Peter Pan (In Kensington Gardens ) (Wordsworth Children's Classics) - Softcover
The magical Peter Pan comes to the night nursery of the Darling children, Wendy, John and Michael. He teaches them to fly, then takes them through the sky to Never-Never Land, where they find Red Indians, wolves, Mermaids and... Pirates. The leader of the pirates is the sinister Captain Hook. His hand was bitten off by a crocodile, who, as Captain Hook explains 'liked me arm so much that he has followed me ever since, licking his lips for the rest of me'. After lots of adventures, the story reaches its exciting climax as Peter, Wendy and the children do battle with Captain Hook and his band. Peter Pan in Kensington Gardens is the magical tale that first introduces Peter Pan, the little boy who never grows any older. He escapes his human form and flies to Kensington Gardens, where all his happy memories are, and meets the fairies, the thrushes, and Old caw the crow. The fairies think he is too human to be allowed to stay in after Lock-out time, so he flies off to an island which divides the Gardens from the more grown-up Hyde Park... Peter s adventures, and how he eventually meets Mamie and the goat, are delightfully illustrated by Arthur Rackham.

About the Author:
J. M. Barrie, the son of a weaver, was born near Dundee, Scotland, in 1860. He was a journalist and novelist and began writing for the stage in 1892. "Peter Pan," first produced in London on December 27, 1904, was an immediate success. The story of Peter Pan first appeared in book form (titled Peter and Wendy, and later Peter Pan and Wendy) in 1911. Barrie died in 1937, bequeathing the copyright of Peter Pan to the Great Ormond Street Hospital in London, a hospital for children.

AUTHOR: Sir James Matthew Barrie, 1st Baronet OM (9 May 1860-19 June 1937), more commonly known as J.M. Barrie, was a Scottish novelist and dramatist.

He was made a member of the Order of Merit in 1922. Magical Peter Pan comes to the night nursery of the Darling children, teaches them to fly, and then takes them through the sky to Never-Never Land. After many adventures the story reaches its climax as Peter and the children do battle with Captain Hook and his band.
