"Starred review. ...the story of Peter Pan benefits greatly from
Tatar’s extensive contextualizing as well as the supplemental
material she includes. Of this, much is rare, and it is a treat...
Bibliophiles and casual readers alike, and of course all who love
Peter Pan or are fascinated by his creator, will want this gem.
Recommended."
