Return to Book Page. Barrie Peter Pan: Peter and Wendy and Peter Pan in Kensington Gardens. Peter Hollindale Editor. 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. Get A Copy.

But to answer your question, no it isn't a sequel, it's a book that combines the original Peter Pan novel and the story in which the very first Peter Pan originated. Peter Pan in Kensington Gardens could possibly be seen as a kind of prequel, although Barrie did very Peter Pan: Peter and Wendy and Peter Pan in Kensington Gardens rework Peter in his later works on Peter Pan play and then novel. It's interesting if you're interested in the origins and how a writer comes up with a concept and the process that takes place in bringing that concept to life. Lists with This Book.

Anyway, I found both books a disappointment. Does this still enchant kids? I wonder. The recent Jason Isaacs version was nice. I ramble. View all 23 comments. My copy is split into the two stories, Peter Pan in Kensington Gardens and Peter and Wendy, and they are so different! Peter Pan in Kensington Gardens. The reason birds can fly and we can't is simply that they have perfect faith, for to have faith is to have wings. A young child of only 7 days falls out of his pram and lives with the birds and the fairies in 3. A young child of only 7 days falls out of his pram and lives with the birds and the fairies in Kensington Gardens. This is a sweet story of how he grows accustomed to life in the gardens and as he takes on the task of burying young children who also fall out of their prams and fail to survive the night. Certainly a slightly darker tale than I expected. Peter and Wendy "Keep back, lady, no one is going to catch me and make me a man. He is older, and has relocated to the Neverlands The characters aren't as nice and squeaky clean as Disney leads us to believe. They are harsh and real, which makes them sometimes difficult to like. Peter Pan: Peter and Wendy and Peter Pan in Kensington Gardens enjoyed these two stories, I love to experience the books where classic characters originate and to see how they have been adapted and grown in different interpretations as time as passed. Peter Pan is an iconic character, the boy who never grew up will live on in all childhoods, it's a privilege to have experienced J M Barrie's world as he originally created it. May 23, Alina rated it liked it. He was as much merrier than you, for instance, as you are merrier than your father. Merriment is joy grounded in something solid; Peter is certainly gay, but there is nothing merry about him, nor about his world. The hallmark of a really magical world is that everything matters. One ring - or one word - or one fox - or one talking spider - is not replaceable by another. Not so in Peter Pan. We see this in a touching moment when Peter is dumbfounded by Captain Hook not playing fair because he has forgotten ever having encountered injustice before. Wendy, too, is replaceable - by her daughter, and then by her grand-daughter. So is Tinker Bell. There are such a lot of them. I expect she is no more. Incidentally, Captain Hook has his faults, but at least he remembers his Eton days! Nor is Peter the only one who forgets. Adults forget, too, you see. All this makes Peter Pan far more like our own vague and, ultimately, dreary memories of childhood fantasies than like a real magical tale. That said, as adult self-absorbed fantasies go, this one is superb. The language is perfect, the images delightful and there is much that an adult can relate to. After all, each of us has a ticking crocodile of our own. It is as chilling as it is good. It's the story my dad read to me about a billion times for a bedtime story, the sequel of the Disney movie was my first ever movie I saw in a cinema. And my dad always says that it was so important to him because it's a story for children and their parents, with so many layers. And now I'm 16 and a little closer to 'adulthood' than I was than "To die would be an awfully big adventure. And now I'm 16 and a little closer to 'adulthood' than I was than when he read the story to me, I guess I see what he means. It's a story about children, reveling in life and going on adventures. There is no bigger adventure than life: it's our adventure, we should go out and live it. It's a story about a boy who is young and proud of it, but secretly longs for someone to take of him. It's a story of a man who is so afraid of death: ever since it took his hand, he hears it coming with every step he takes. It's a story about mermaids, pirates, indians and fairies I do believe in them and so should you! And it reminds me of joy and being happy; of living life to the full; of doing weird things that make you smile. Because people don't care, you can only make them smile. This story is also my personal reminder that I should remain joyful and imaginative my whole life, never to lose that, something that's quite important to me as an aspiring writer.
