5.0 out of 5 stars
A wonderful James Barrie book!,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Little White Bird: Or Adventures in Kensington Gardens (Hardcover)
Its a great book. Sometimes hard to understand because in old English writing. It is the story of a man who mentors a little boy and during that has a love interest with a woman. It is J.M. Barrie's first book with the character of Peter Pan in it.

5.0 out of 5 stars
Worthwhile book, but quite strange to modern eyes,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Little White Bird: Or Adventures in Kensington Gardens (Hardcover)
[A] previous reviewer states: "It is the story of a man who mentors a little boy and during that has a love interest with a woman."There is no interest in the woman in the slightest! Indeed the author states explicitly at the beginning how tiresome it is to be persued by her. He loves the boy only. Amazing that this was a best-seller and world famous in its day - a wonderful book, but you can't help thinking that if published in 1999 it would be confined only to the mail-order book list of NAMBLA, as the old bachelor even baths and sleeps with the boy! It's available online..., as are Arthur Rackham's wonderful illustrations for the Peter Pan sections (it contains an inner story which is a very early version of Barrie's "Peter Pan".
