Autor Michael Patrick Hearnen Limba Engleză Paperback – 26 dec 2002

Barrie's Peter Pan in Kensington Gardens, here are seventeen classic stories and poems from the golden age of the English fairy tale. Some of them amuse, some enchant, some satirize and criticize, but each one is an expression of the joy of living.
