Fifty full-color illustrations by a preeminent illustrator of children's literature enhance Barrie's timeless tales of the little boy who refused to grow up. This stunning keepsake edition forms a "prequel" to Peter's adventures in Neverland, in which the wild child discovers a magical world in the heart of London.
Journalist, novelist, and theater writer J. M Barrie's (1860-1937) most famous work is his play, Peter Pan. Eventually developed into a novel by Barrie, the story has been adapted into numerous feature films, musicals, children's books, and more since the early 1900s. This beautiful edition is enhanced by the art of Arthur Rackham, whose dreamlike style has added magical enchantment to a wealth of the world's finest literature.
