£450.00
A first edition, first printing of ‘The Little White Bird’, published by Hodder and Stoughton in 1902. A very good book – no inscriptions – some rubbing to the edges and to the spine tips and corners. Tissue fronts piece still present – some spotting
‘The Little White Bird’ (1902) by J.M. Barrie is a novel blending fantasy and autobiography. It follows an unnamed narrator’s whimsical adventures in London and Kensington Gardens, where he befriends a boy named David. The book introduces Peter Pan, depicting his origins as a baby who flies from his nursery to live with fairies. A mix of adult themes and childhood wonder, it laid the foundation for Barrie’s later works on Peter Pan’s legend.
