«Peter Pan in Kensington Gardens» is the children's fantasy tale by J. M. Barrie, published by Wordsworth Editions Ltd in paperback (144 pages).
A tale that introduces Peter Pan, the boy who never grows up. Peter abandons his human form and flies to Kensington Gardens, laden with happy memories; there he lives among fairies, thrushes and the crow Old Caw. His adventures through the park, up to his encounter with Mamie and the goat, are illustrated by Arthur Rackham.
It is the first installment of the Peter Pan series and belongs to the Wordsworth Children's Classics collection. Complete text in English.
Intended for young readers and for those wishing to discover the origin of Peter Pan before his better-known works.
Sir James Matthew Barrie, 1st Baronet was a British novelist and playwright. He was born and educated in Scotland and then moved to London, where he wrote several successful novels and plays. There he met the Llewelyn Davies boys, who inspired him to write about a baby boy who has magical adventures in Kensington Gardens, then to write Peter Pan, or The Boy Who Wouldn't Grow Up, a 1904 West End "fairy play" about an ageless boy and an ordinary girl named Wendy who have adventures in the fantasy setting of Neverland.
