Peter Pan by J.M. Barrie
Are you familiar with the flying little boy who never grew up? It's a play. It's a movie. It's a book! I would recommend this title to anyone who never wished to grow up.
Narrator Jim Dale returns to read another classic tale. I did expect to hear him break into Disney songs, but that never happened while I listened. I did follow the Disney storyline and stage storyline throughout the book version. Of course, none of the three versions are the same, so it's an interesting listen.
Side notes about Peter Pan --
-- Jim Dale received a Grammy Award Nomination in 2007 for his audiobook.
-- The royalties from sale of this audiobook benefit the Great Ormond Street Hospital for children located in London.
-- J. M. Barrie's inspiration for Peter Pan came from the Llewelyn Davies family.
