In Peter Pan in Kensington Gardens, J.M. Barrie first created Peter Pan as a baby, living a wild and secret life with birds and fairies in the middle of London. Later Barrie let this remarkable child grow a little older and he became the boy-hero of Neverland, making his first appearance, with Wendy, Captain Hook, and the Lost Boys, in Peter and Wendy. The Peter Pan stories were Barrie's only works for children but, as their persistent popularity shows, their themes of imaginative escape continue to charm even those who long ago left Neverland. This is the first edition to include both texts in one volume and the first to a present an extensively annotated text for Peter Pan in Kensington Gardens.

I plan on decorating my room as a Peter Pan theme. So I think this would be a good story to read on the first day of school or even the first week of school.
I kind of regret not reading this when I was younger. It pretty much has everything I loved when I was a kid: pirates, sword fights, flying. Reading this as an adult, it doesn't seem nearly as wonderful. Every time I got caught up in the story I would get thrown out by some racist or sexist comment....
You guys all know the story of Peter Pan, right? A boy who refuses to grow up flies through the window of Wendy, John, and Michael’s nursery and leads them to Neverland, where they meet the lost boys and battle pirates.
