Description de l’éditeur
Peter Pan unquestionably belongs to the celebrated list of the most famous fairy tales of the world. This version has been adapted with care and in mind of the needs of today’s younger readers, all in a beautiful yet lively language. Small children will welcome it with keen interest, making it their favorite first tale.
This eBook was richly illustrated by Arthur Friday, an artist whose talent never ceases to touch the hearts and imagination of kids. His work distinguishes itself by a meticulous world-class technique, which never strays away from its design purpose - to always emanate and stir joy and good feelings.
Peter Pan is an endearing and powerful tale of a very special journey of three ‘everyday’ children to a land of fantasy. Small readers will easily identify themselves with the heroes of this magical tale: Along with them, they will fly with Peter Pan and his tiny and lovely fairy, Tinker Bell, to the mysterious land of never-ending adventures. There they will meet the Lost Boys, and spontaneously recognize them as new friends whose needs are natural and legitimate. They will ally themselves with the brave daughter of an Indian chief and her Indian warriors to wage a battle against pirates and their ringleader, the cruel Captain Hook! They will experience the meaning of true friendship and the bitter taste of disappointment, and they will take to heart the timeless struggle between the desire for adventure and the longing for a warm, peaceful and loving family home.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
A number of classic children's books return in milestone and reissued editions for a new generation. J.M. Barrie's enchanting Peter Pan: 100th Anniversary Edition features a large trim for reading aloud and rich, detailed illustrations by Michael Hague (which he originally published in 1987). Peter Pan's flyaway red hair and tattered garment of "skeleton leaves and the juices that ooze out of trees" capture the free spirit of the boy who refused to grow up.
