James Matthew Barrie is Scotland’s pride and the literary godfather of one of the most enchanting and poignant characters in children’s literature—Peter Pan. In Barrie’s hands, the life of a motherless, homeless boy transforms into a magical tale, delicately weaving a dreamlike and luminous story for young readers. It’s a tale written long ago, in years of joy and sorrow, from a world far removed from ours…

Sip a warm, fragrant cup of tea in Kensington Gardens. The Old Chestnut Tree might drop a few honey-sweet petals into your cup. Do you hear it? It’s Peter Pan, singing marvelous psalms spun from the scent of distant seas, the whispers of lost shadows, and the memories of golden forget-me-nots. His melodies make the tender hearts of young pines beat, cherry blossoms scatter into a cascade of red lanterns, and oak hollows burst forth with flocks of fairies. The wind impatiently flips through the pages of this enchanted story, inviting you to follow its magic.
