Sinossi
Peter Pan, il ragazzo che non vuole crescere, ha il potere di volare e vive in un'isola magica. Ma è affascinato dalle storie della buonanotte che Mary Darling racconta ai suoi figli e di sera va a trovarli nella loro casa a Londra. Durante una delle sue visite notturne perde la sua ombra, e quando Wendy, la figlia di Mary, gliela ricuce addosso, il ragazzo la invita a volare con lui verso il Paese-che-non-c'è. "Un po' di polvere di fata, un pensiero felice, e via che si va". Seguendo il misterioso e sfuggente ragazzo, Wendy e i suoi fratelli andranno incontro a mille peripezie, ai perfidi dispetti di Campanellino, alla minaccia del temibile capitan Uncino e dei pellerossa. Nella fantastica isola che non c'è conosceranno il mondo delle fate, la laguna delle sirene e il popolo dei Bambini Smarriti, bambini che come Peter Pan hanno deciso di non voler mai abbandonare l'incoscienza e la meraviglia dell'infanzia. Per più di un secolo le avventure di Peter Pan hanno conquistato generazioni di lettori e continuano ad affascinare tutti i bambini e moltissimi adulti, perché rimangono nel cuore come una riserva di polvere fatata, per volare sulle ali dell'immaginazione, ognuno verso il proprio, personale, Paese-che-non-c'è. Età di lettura: da 8 anni.

Recensioni
Ever so beautiful and tragic Peter Pan was a favorite when I was a child. It was a lovely thing to dream of a place called Neverland, where one may fly with fairies and splash with mermaids. As an adult, you realize the truth of what Barrie himself once said… that he’d written a tragedy. Beautiful, se Leggi tutto
I read this to Celyn. It's a short book. Google tells me 47,000 words but it felt shorter than that. Many of us know the story second hand through cartoons, Hollywood adaptations, and picture-books. The original item is not that dissimilar, though it's a fair bit more brutal than the cartoons and hav Leggi tutto
ENGLISH ( Peter Pan ) / ITALIANO «All children, except one, grow up.» The incipit of Peter Pan of J.M. Barrie is the perfect synthesis of the book. I will try to make the point using as inspiration the words of a child, namely three phrases from my daughter Arianna while in the evening she was listening Leggi tutto
Magical This week, I went to a local park, sat at a picnic table, and started to read Peter and Wendy to two children. Within seconds, every child in the park, all children that I didn’t even know, sat at the picnic table, engrossed in the story. Peter and Wendy is the story that we know as Peter Pa Leggi tutto
Oh boy. I'm not sure what to say other than I cannot think of one aspect I enjoyed about this book. I tend to gravitate toward dark, disturbing, and twisted stories ( what does that say about me??? ), but this was just sad with no pay off. Each page felt like a chore to get through and I didn't even f Leggi tutto
‘all children, except one, grow up.’ perhaps i could call it a quarter life crisis, but i am definitely experiencing a little bit of peter pan syndrome lately. and this story is that wonderful adventure through childhood nostalgia that i am desperately needing. a bit old fashioned, for sure, but Leggi tutto
Whew child this! This book does not hold up. I don't exactly remember reading it as a child, but I'm not sure that I would have connected the dots with the number of issues I had reading this book as an adult. First, I don't think I need to give a description of this one. So many people are familiar Leggi tutto
“To die will be an awfully big adventure.” Peter Pan was one of my favorite childhood stories and I'm in awe of the layers upon layers I discovered reading it now as an adult. The narrator is inconsistent, almost vicious, changes opinions and switches sides, sometimes rude and insensitive, but always Leggi tutto
