The Little White Bird


Read by LibriVox Volunteers

(4.6 stars; 25 reviews)

"A children's book, sharp social commentary and sad psychological thriller about a man's search for a sense of belonging. All in one amazing and lyrical collection. This is the first book in which Peter Pan starts to appear. His adventure in Kensington Gardens are first narrated here. Other than that, it offers a magical portrait of contemporary London, and a realistic tale of a family to which every one of us could have belonged." - Summary by Stav Nisser. (7 hr 25 min)

Reviews


(5 stars)

J. M. Barrie gives us an intimate peek into the back story of his creation of Peter Pan and the charming characters that still capture our hearts generations later. It’s a timeless, whimsical tale that appeals to young and old on so many levels.

Great book.


(4 stars)

The readers were great, but I'm not a fan of multiple readers for one book. Specially when it changes chapter by chapter.
