10/17/2017 0 Comments Peter Pan by J.M. Barrie![]() How I Found: Like all lost things from childhood, they resurface, and I have an affinity for all children's books, classics in particular. Coming across another illustrated version of Peter Pan is something I can never just fly past. The story of the boy-who-never-grows up is one we all hold tight to because each of us is inclined to think happy thoughts, even when they need a little pixie dust. I am drawn to illustrated versions because it is like looking at the magic through the artist's eyes and new details are revealed in each interpretation. Why You Might Read: I recently pulled my copies off the shelves as bedtime stories for my children whose imaginations are ready for a more sustained story, and each night when the chapter begins, they are pulled in by both the words and the pictures. As their imaginations explode with the magic of an unforgettable tale, I am reminded of my own childhood, how we all have a Hook to defeat, and that time is but a grumpy crocodile who only haunts those who are fearful of it. Tell Me: Have you read this book? What did you think?
