Title: Children Still Love Peter Pan!
Post by: tcarroll on September 22, 2018, 01:06:33 PM
I have a grandson who just recently turned four years old.  He, like most children in the USA is a big fan of Disney movies and cartoons.  His parents bought a few movies for him just in the last two weeks, one of them being the Disney cartoon version of Peter Pan.  For his third birthday, my husband and I bought him two ships, The Jolly Roger, and a ship named "Bucky" from the Disney cartoon "Jake and the Neverland Pirates".  He also recently picked out for himself a toy, and chose a sword so he could play "Captain Hook". :)  Though it seems I am rattling on and on, my point is this...children STILL love Peter Pan!  I sometimes sit and think about the fact that all of his fun, and his wonderful play time stems from the imagination of Mr. Barrie so many years ago!  How wonderful that is!  I think Mr. Barrie would be very proud that he is still bringing happiness to children everywhere... and even more proud that he is still fueling their imaginations!
