Tenía mis retincencas hacia este personaje por culpa de la película de Disney, pero cuando logré vencerlas descubrí una tierna historia llena de magia y sentido del humor.
Peter Pan es, en efecto, un niño que no quiere crecer. Y como niño es irresponsable, se enfada fácilmente y rechaza lo que no entiende, al mismo tiempo tiene una gran capacidad para la fantasía y la diversión. Y Garfio es un verdadero pirata, que al mismo tiempo que no duda en clavar su espada en cualquier subordinado que le discuta una orden presume de que lo más importante en la vida es tener buena educación.
Un libro que puede disfrutarse a todas las edades.

For some reason my child's 3rd grade class is reading this dusty old book together. I have never read it but saw the animated one at least once, so I knew there was some awful stuff in it. I figured I should probably read it too to better manage questions about racism and sexism from my kid, and to decide if I should fight her teacher.
Peter is a little sexist shithead bully. Yes, there are horrible slurs all throughout this whole book. A few sentences made me audibly gasp. It's a horrid little book that doesn't deserve the celebration it gets.

There are culturally insensitive bits, but with some 21st century updates, this could be a lovely children’s tale full of magic and fun. It would be a lovely lyrical story to read to one’s children. And it made me sentimental for my childhood, and my daughter’s.
