DOWNLOAD EBOOKAll children, except one, grow up. They soon know that they will grow up, and the way Wendy knew was this. One day when she was two years old she was playing in a garden, and she plucked another flower and ran with it to her mother. I suppose she must have looked rather delightful, for Mrs. Darling put her hand to her heart and cried, "Oh, why can't you remain like this for ever!" This was all that passed between them on the subject, but henceforth Wendy knew that she must grow up. You always know after you are two. Two is the beginning of the end.Of course they lived at 14 [their house number on their street], and until Wendy came her mother was the chief one. She was a lovely lady, with a romantic mind and such a sweet mocking mouth. Her romantic mind was like the tiny boxes, one within the other, that come from the puzzling East, however many you discover there is always one more; and her sweet mocking mouth had one kiss on it that Wendy could never get, though there it was, perfectly conspicuous in the right-hand corner.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKConsidered a masterpiece since its first appearance on stage in 1904, Peter Pan is J. M. Barrie’s most famous work and arguably the greatest of all children’s stories. While it is a wonderful fantasy for the young, Peter Pan, particularly in the novel form Barrie published in 1911, says something important to all of us. Here “the boy who wouldn’t grow up” and his adventures with Wendy and the lost boys in the Neverland evoke a deep emotional response as they give form to our feelings about parents, boys and girls, the unknown, freedom, and responsibility. Humorous, satiric, filled with suspenseful cliff-hangers and bittersweet truths, Peter Pan works an indisputable magic on readers of all ages, making it a true classic of imaginative literature.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKPeter makes night-time calls on the Darlings' house in Bloomsbury, listening in on Mrs. Mary Darling's bedtime stories by the open window. One night Peter is spotted and, while trying to escape, he loses his shadow. On returning to claim it, Peter wakes Mary's daughter, Wendy Darling. Wendy succeeds in re-attaching his shadow to him, and Peter learns that she knows lots of bedtime stories. He invites her to Neverland to be a mother to his gang, the Lost Boys, children who were lost in Kensington Gardens. Wendy agrees, and her brothers John and Michael go along. Their magical flight to Neverland is followed by many adventures. The children are blown out of the air by a cannon and Wendy is nearly killed by the Lost Boy Tootles. Peter and the Lost Boys build a little house for Wendy to live in while she recuperates (a structure that, to this day, is called a Wendy House.) Soon John and Michael adopt the ways of the Lost Boys...

DOWNLOAD EBOOKPeter Pan is vanishing. Unauthorized changes have tinkered with J.M. Barrie's magic. How can we know that the book we call "Peter Pan" is presented the way Barrie first penned it? Since the mid-20th century, readers couldn't be certain-- until this edition. With the award-winning "Hook & Jill" Saga, the Reginetta Press drew grown-up readers back to the Neverland. Now it carries us to the Island again, this time on the wings of Barrie's own words.... "All children, except one, grow up." Peter Pan himself grew in his author's imagination, from the true boys Barrie knew, to the infant of "The Little White Bird," to the Wonderful Boy on stage, to his familiar form in "Peter and Wendy." But no evolution of Barrie's text is necessary for us to revel in his Neverland-- in any era, and at any age. With "Peter and Wendy: the Restored Text," the Reginetta Press preserves the integrity of Barrie's manuscript, before it is lost to time. All other versions stand "second-to-the-right" of J.M. Barrie's. This Reginetta Press edition replicates the exact text of J.M. Barrie's 1911 novelization of the Peter Pan story, "Peter and Wendy," and reproduces the F.D. Bedford illustrations. This volume corrects minor typographical errors in its 2015 edition.
