Aonia edizioni. Peter Pan è un bambino di soli sette giorni che dalla culla vede le alte cime degli alberi del parco, e preso dal desiderio di raggiungerle prende a volare. Il parco si anima per lui, ma solo alla notte, il giorno è riservato ai normali visitatori: Voi dovete capire da voi stessi che è un po' difficile seguir le avventure di Peter Pan senz'avere una certa familiarità coi giardini di Kensington. Essi sono in Londra, dove vive il re d'Inghilterra, ed io ho l'abitudine di condurci ogni giorno il mio David, salvo il caso che sia decisamente infreddato. Nessun bambino ha mai visto tutti, tutti i giardini, per la ragione che vien sempre così presto l'ora di tornare a casa. E la ragione per cui vien così presto l'ora di tornare a casa è questa, che, se voi siete così piccoli come il mio David, appena fa buio, avete subito sonno. Se vostra madre non fosse più che sicura di questo, non vi manderebbe a letto tanto di buon'ora...

Auld Licht Idylls by J. M. Barrie is a series of short stories about life in late 19th century small town Scotland. The whole set of stories revolves around the town of Thrums and more especially the members of one of the four churches in that community. The Auld Licht Kirk happens to be more hard core Calvinist''s than any other group in Scotland at the time. In English they would be called the Old Light Church as they believed that the traditional morals of the church had been compromised and so they broke away from the proper Presbyterians. This group and there methods and traditions shows that people can live hard working, strict lives and still barely be about to survive.
