Nunca fui tan fan de Peter Pan, pero me alegra haberle dado una oportunidad

I want to start by saying that the illustrations in the book are nice and warm and I enjoyed looking at them more than reading the story itself.
And for the story,
When I was a child I used to relate to Peter's Pan character a lot and I couldn't understand Wendy's decision of leaving, but now... Oh boy! there is a lot to unpack here.
I watched Disney's adaptation multiple times growing up and it was one of my favourite movies, and I didn't think about reading the book since the experience that I had with the film was enough for me. It wasn't until I watched a video for a content creater that I like discussing the true meaning behind this seemingly naïve children's story, after watching her I made up my mind to read the story myself. She talked in detail about different aspects covered by the book but what stuck with me was when she explained how the story highlighted boys and girls different reactions towards adolescence, and how we treat girls as if they where older compared to boys their age. Every and each time that Wendy was mentioned in the book as thier mother I was terrified! She was a child just like them but she was expected to occupy an adults rule? A friend described me as "Overly strict with my use of political correctness" and maybe it's true but I cannot read Peter Pan with an un-Woke mind and ignore the discomfort that I felt.
And I cannot unsee how this story is troubling and it raises a lot of concerns about the main character himself. I would like to claim the back story of this lost child, what happened to Peter that he ended up like this? Who hurt him? Where are his parents? Why he hates adults that much?
And what about the sad ending? Are we going to pretend it's not there?
I feel bad for Peter! And his story is indeed a horror story.
Anyway, I haven't got all my thoughts about this tale straight yet, and I don't feel very philosophical today, so I'll leave my review to here.
It will always remain a good story, enjoyable and interesting, and by reading it I finally noticed that it wasn't only about telling a great adventure but also about a deeper more complex meaning around coming-of-age differences between children.
I would like to add that the crocodile that was chasing captain Hook was my favourite part and it was the only element that didn't disturb me, I mean captain Hook? An adult with a mustache and a hook wants to kill children? yeah totally acceptable.

as a fa orozco stan, tenía que leerlo, pero vamos, ¿0review de la edición? preciosa, hermosa, muy muy muy bien hecha. ¿del libro? no significa mucho para mí, no sé si no es el momento o algo, pero just meh para mí, lo leí en aproximadamente dos canciones de taylor swift (yes, voy a medir el tiempo en canciones de tay aadkhajahkfj) no tengo otros thoughts, creo que no puedo decir algo de este libro que no se haya dicho antes ✨

I do I really love Peter Pan's story. To be honest this one was my first book but unfortunately, it has a short version then what I thought before. So far the story was good although that I didn't find the details for every single scene of their adventure.
Sooner or later, I will read the original version of Peter Pan because He was my childhood crush.
Rated 3.4/5

"Todos los niños crecen, y se convertirán en adultos. Todos excepto uno."
Tengo un personaje favorito que nadie, absolutamente nadie puede tomar su lugar...es Peter Pan.
El niño culpable de que no quisiera tener ventanas con barrotes porque...¿Cómo iba a poder salir volando si me encontraba encerrada?
Era una niña, y uno de mis primeros cuentos fue el de Peter pan (pero en la versión Disney) ... Lo admito, casi estaba esperando hallar el beso oculto jajaj
Lo maravilloso de este libro (aparte de la historia), es la asombrosa ilustración que le acompaña...es única, me dan ganas de tener toda la colección.

Illustrations make this little book retelling of the story of Peter Pan. The retelling isn't well editing unfortunately so they are errors throughout.
