I knew a girl who read her best friend's copy of the Peter Pan novel.

Pan, who and what art though?' he cried huskily.
I'm youth, I'm joy,' Peter answered at a venture, 'I'm a little bird that has broken out of the egg."

hi. clicked over for your awesome donut painting... and then kind of fell into your blog... and then clicked follow... and then scrolled back through like... a few months of your life... :)
ReplyDeletestill think this might be my favorite post.
i love peter pan. i love that barrie's prose is so dense and mature, and yet, he wrote it expecting children to understand. (which they do, of course) so different from what we see today.
great stuff here, and i'm looking forward to more.
