McFarlane’s designs can also be seen the stunning binding with blocked silver fairy motifs and striking pink flowers. M. Barrie Dec 30 1927", along with an autograph letter presenting the book mounted to the front free endpaper, and Macdonald's bookpl.

POST UPDATE: As my old favorite, the Scott Gustafson illustrated version of Peter Pan is no longer available - I am now recommending the MinaLima illustrated version of Peter Pan, due to its inclusion of interactive elements that are certain to fascinate any young reader! Peter Pan in Kensington Gardens was first published in 1906, in both deluxe and trade editions, with the plates gathered at the end.

The language was a bit different than we are used to and even I am having a bit of trouble figuring out just who is who and what is going on. All pictures unless otherwise stated have been taken by me, Rebecca Smith – the sole author of this blog. The new MinaLima illustrated Peter Pan may not be everyone's cup of tea - so be sure to preview it, just to make sure it is in line with your expectations.

Barrie's exploration of themes such as childhood, imagination, and the concept of eternal youth in Peter Pan have had a lasting impact on children’s, and indeed adult, literature. It contains many colorful illustrations as well as surprising 3d elements such as a pull-out map of Neverland and a special interactive clock (the croc o'clock) that you fiddle with by turning its hands.

I am so grateful to have gotten this book personalized from Nath, and the artist was so sweet to include a gift print in the parcel for me. We are similar in the respect that I like to read a book aloud - when I know that my kids are enjoying it.

The promise of colorful and buoyant illustrations that is implicitly made on the cover pages is not fulfilled. My heart skips a beat when I see them and if I have a complaint - I am truly sad that there are not more of Gustafson's oil paintings. Folio commissioned Hokyoung Kim for the artwork, while the late author’s wife, Wendy Benchley, provides a fascinating new introduction.

The wide appeal of such themes has led his work to be adapted into many stage productions, films, and television shows, further solidifying his place in popular culture. Barrie had long been haunted by the idea of a child that never grows up, ever since the death of his elder brother when he was six. He takes Wendy Darling and her two brothers to their magic world and they have many adventures with Peter, his fairy Tinker Bell, the Lost Boys, and the pirate Captain Hook. Debra has worked on a number of Folio editions, including The Little White Horse (2013) and The Nursery Rhyme Book (2016).
