This book forms part of our 'Pook Press' imprint, celebrating the golden age of illustration in children's literature. 'Peter Pan in Kensington Gardens' is a true classic of Children's literature. It was written by J.M. Barrie (1860-1937), and tells the story of a mischievous boy who can fly and never grows up. He spends his never-ending childhood on the small island of Neverland as the leader of his gang, the Los Boys. Mermaids, Native Americans, Fairies, Pirates and occasionally ordinary children all make an appearance. The text is accompanied by a series of dazzling colour illustrations by Arthur Rackham (1867-1939). One of the most celebrated painters of the British Golden Age of Illustration, his artistry still delights both young and old over a century later. The text is presented in its original form, alongside Rackham's beautiful images and a preface by the illustrator himself.
