In 1902, nine years before the publication of the classic novel Peter Pan and Wendy, Peter Pan made his first appearance in several chapters of another book by Sir James M. Barrie, called The Little White Bird; theses stories were later published as a separate book, Peter Pan in Kensington Gardens. In this fragile victorian fantasy, Barrie gives us our first glimpse of the impish sprite who escaped through the nursery window and danced with fairies in London. From the intro: Never, in the history of children's literature, has there been a more enchanted combination than Arthur Rackham and Peter Pan. ------------- I read the story over 2 decades ago when I thought I'd start with the Peter Pan story from the top but I didn't enjoy this story. Here in 2019, I re-found the book to look at the illustrations. Many full page illustrations by the master but unfortunately the tones are more muted than they should be. Perhaps this version's printing hasn't held up well. {novelette} keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen

HTML: J M Barrie's most famous character, Peter Pan, originated in a whimsical story from his book The Little White Bird. Peter Pan in Kensington Gardens is a revised version of that same story, and the Peter Pan we meet is a younger, slightly different character to the Peter Pan of Barrie's later, better-known works. Peter is a small boy who is, like all boys, part bird. When he hears his future being discussed he flies out the window and away to Kensington Gardens. There he discovers that he is now more boy than bird, and so he is stranded in the park, unable to fly any longer. .Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |

On the other hand, Calla Editions' pleasantly crafted volume of "Peter Pan In Kengsinton Gardens" is worth keeping for the beauty of its presentation, especially for the illustrations that are those of the original artist and king of Edwardian children's illustrations, Arthur Rackham. For Rackham fans, it is a must have. ( )
