"It is the classic tale of Peter Pan, the boy who never wanted to grow up. In the original story is more detailed than I remembered in the Disney version, which is close in terms of storyline. The characters are much more developed and very descriptive. At times the the langauge was some what difficult and hard to follow. I would recommend for grades 3rd and up. Published 1904."

    " "All children, except one, grow up" is my favorite quote of is book.!! What child doesn't want to hear stories about a flying boy who never grows up? He gets to remain a child; a child forever! How exciting is it to have a dual with an evil pirate names Captain Hook ? Love this book and would recommend it for a child in 3rd grade or above. "

    " The story of Peter Pan is my absolute favorite...I've been in love with the Disney movie since as long as I can remember. Finally, I decided to read the original story written by J.M. Barrie and it was just as wonderful. He has such an imagination and innocence to his writing, the reader can't help but be drawn into this heartwarming fantasy. "

    " In the first few chapters, it resolved a debate my best friend and I had of why, on occasion, did she wake up with dirt under her nails? It gave me quite a scare during the middle, and at the end I cried, almost hysterically. An incredible book overall -nothing like I expected. "

    " An interesting read. The language is not what you're used to as this was published about 100 years ago (hard to believe!) It was still fun to read and a vocabulary builder. Also had a rather dark side. Was fun to compare to the Disney retelling. "

    " Totally misrepresented by Disney, you'd be better off watching Hook to get a grasp of the real Pan. It is probably a better story for adults than children with plenty of humorous irony and wonderful characterizations of the oddities of adult humans. "

About J. M. Barrie

James Matthew Barrie (1860–1937) was born in Scotland, the son of a weaver and the ninth of ten children. His mother saw to it that he was educated, despite the family’s low income. He studied at the University of Edinburgh and spent two years on the Nottingham Journal before settling in London as a freelance writer in 1885. His short stories, essays, and novels were well received, and he began to gain a fine reputation as a playwright. His most enduring work is Peter Pan, which is based on stories he made up for children in his neighborhood.
