Peter Pan by J.M Barrie

Pages: 217

Genre: Classics, YA

Synopsis:

Peter Pan, the mischievous boy who refuses to grow up, lands in the Darling’s proper middle-class home to look for his shadow. He befriends Wendy, John and Michael and teaches them to fly (with a little help from fairy dust). He and Tinker Bell whisk them off to Never-land where they encounter the Red Indians, the Little Lost Boys, pirates and the dastardly Captain Hook.

Review:

All children, except one, grow up.

Want to read this book? I will do you a favor. Go to youtube, and look up Jon Solo and his messed-up origins series. He will tell you everything about 1. the Disney movie, 2. the book, and 3. the author. I promise you it’s better than picking this up.

I could not get past the writing style. Also should not be classified as a child’s book. Middle grade, yes. But basically, we all know who the real villain is… Peter.
