Seller's description:
Peter Pan, the Lost Boys, and Captain Hook have been some of the worldâs most storied characters since J.M. Barrie introduced them in his beloved tale, Peter Pan. In this new picture book, Dave Barry and Ridley Pearson take a fresh look at these characters as only they can. Created for the animated film, Mary Blairâs illustrations helped to define the look of this Walt Disney classic and bring all the magic of Never Land to lifeâfrom the ominous Skull Rock to Peterâs secret underground lair. Laced with humor, action, and a dash of pixie dust, this cheeky retelling and vibrant concept art are woven into an entertaining new take on a classic story.

- Masterfully WrittenAs I was reading this book to my boys, I kept thinking how masterfully it was being told. Most children I would think have only experienced Peter Pan on DVD. What a joy to read this beautiful, engaging story to my children. If you have read "The Little Mouse, the Red Ripe Strawberry and the Big Hungry Bear", you will love the way this book has been written with the same engaging text. It took me approximately 20 minutes to read. I was not overwhelmed by the volume of text at bedtime! The pictures are on one page and a small paragraph on the facing page. The amazing animation by Mary Blair are an imagination gold mine. I wish I had read this to my kids prior to them every seeing the movie. Don't make the same mistake I have!

- StunningThis is the third storybook Disney has published that puts Mary Blair's Disney concept art to it's story, rewritten in this case by Dave Barry and Ridley Pearson to match the art Blair left behind. The story at times seems stilted because it has to work with what had already been drawn, but succeeds overall in re-imagining a classic. You will not regret buying this fun storybook full of some of the most beautiful images ever made on the Disney lot. Truly inspirational and a study for anyone in the art/design/animation world.
