Peter Pan in Kensington Gardens by J.M. Barrie. Peter Pan, the boy who refused to grow up, is one of the immortals of children's literature. J.M. Barrie first created Peter Pan as a baby, living in secret with the birds and fairies in the middle of London, but as the children for whom he invented the stories grew older, so too did Peter, reappearing in Neverland, where he was aided in his epic battles with Red Indians and pirates by the motherly and resourceful Wendy Darling.

In Peter Pan in Kensington Gardens, J. M. Barrie introduces listeners to the origins of his most beloved creation. Here, Peter is not yet the boy who never grows up, but a baby who escapes from his home to live among the birds and fairies in the magical heart of London’s famed park. Beneath the whispering trees and beside the silver lake, he encounters wonder, mischief, and the bittersweet magic of eternal childhood.
