Peter and the Starcatchers

Listening to the audiobook narrated by Jim Dale (who recorded all of the Harry Potter series) is just so enjoyable. I think I'm liking the story so much more than I would if I had read it. I'm recommending the audio version to the kids

This was a wonderful fantasy adventure story. It felt classic and modern at the same time. I have read the original, but I've seen enough adaptations and things that I feel like Peter Pan is a modern fairy tale and this is a great treatment of it.

It was a really fun origin story, anyone who has even the least knowledge about Peter Pan will recognize how things are falling into place. The pirates, the island becoming neverland, etc. I felt connected to the character of Peter, and I loved the original character of Molly as well as the fun original elements of the Starcatchers and “star stuff”. I felt truly sad when Peter found out that he was not going to grow any older. I also liked that they never said how old he was, and implied that he was never really sure of his actual age anyway.

This book was really delightful and I look forward to reading the next book in the series.

i love it :-)
