Synopsis "Peter Pan & Peter Pan in Kensington Gardens (in English)"

The magical Peter Pan comes to the night nursery of the Darling children, Wendy, John and Michael. He teaches them to fly, then takes them through the sky to Never-Never Land, where they find Red Indians, wolves, Mermaids and... Pirates. The leader of the pirates is the sinister Captain Hook. His hand was bitten off by a crocodile, who, as Captain Hook explains 'liked me arm so much that he has followed me ever since, licking his lips for the rest of me'. After lots of adventures, the story reaches its exciting climax as Peter, Wendy and the children do battle with Captain Hook and his band. Peter Pan in Kensington Gardens is the magical tale that first introduces Peter Pan, the little boy who never grows any older. He escapes his human form and flies to Kensington Gardens, where all his happy memories are, and meets the fairies, the thrushes, and Old Caw the crow. The fairies think he is too human to be allowed to stay in after Lock-out time, so he flies off to an island which divides the Gardens from the more grown-up Hyde Park - Peter's adventures, and how he eventually meets Mamie and the goat, are delightfully illustrated by Arthur Rackham.

J.M. Barrie (Kirriemuir, Escocia, 1860 - Londres, 1937) fue un escritor y dramaturgo escocés conocido especialmente por ser el creador de Peter Pan. Nacido en el seno de una familia de artesanos de escasos recursos, tuvo una infancia feliz hasta que la muerte de un hermano, cuando él contaba apenas seis años de edad, alteró profundamente la vida familiar y trastornó la salud mental de su madre, que se convirtió en una persona desequilibrada, autoritaria e inflexible, cuya influencia y recuerdo pesó para siempre sobre James. El principal anhelo de Barrie durante el resto de su vida fue recuperar la felicidad de sus primeros años y mantuvo siempre un matiz infantil en su personalidad. En Londres alcanzó la fama con sus novelas y obras de teatro. Además, fue allí donde conoció a los hijos de la familia Llewelyn Davies, fuente de inspiración para escribir Peter Pan, la obra de teatro sobre un chico que no quería crecer y sobre Wendy, su compañera de aventuras en Nunca Jamás. Años más tarde la convirtió en novela: Peter y Wendy fue un auténtico fenómeno en la era eduardiana, la Belle Époque británica que aunó los años de inocencia, hedonismo y despreocupación previos a la primera guerra mundial.
