A CHEEKIER PETER PAN
Beloved for her cherub-like characters, Mabel Lucie Atwell brought a radically different style to the era of golden age illustration, offering softer and more playful alternatives to Rackham and Dulac's fairytales. First published in 1921 by Hodder and Stoughton, Atwell's Peter breathed a mischievous life into Barrie's beloved Peter Pan and Wendy with twelve color illustrations and black and white vignettes sprinkled throughout. Presented here is the 1985 limited edition reissue, bringing Atwell's cheeky take to a new generation.
