I bought this book today at a charity shop in Barrie, ON while I was in town for the Ovarian Cancer Canada Walk of Hope. I've now brought it home to Cambridge (about 150km southwest). I have read it in the past and I am reserving this copy for an upcoming Release Challenge.
When I was a kid I was *obsessed* with Peter Pan. I used to make my older brothers watch some old Broadway version of it on VHS over and over and over. Tiger Lily was my favourite character, and I always hated Tinker Bell because she was mean to Wendy and I was adamant that if she really loved Peter she should be nice to the people he loved. To this day, at the age of 33, I have not lived down this former obsession of mine. Not as far as my older brothers go, anyway. I guess it's payback for making them watch that video umpteen times.
Anyhow, this is the book, and I am sharing it with the world. I hope it travels well and is enjoyed by all who read it.

WILD RELEASE NOTES:
I released this book at the tug boat playground in Pier 4 Park tonight. The intention was to release the book at sunset, and while there was still a bit of colour over the lake when we arrived, the light faded very quickly and it was pretty dark by the time we left. I left the book in a protective bag, propped up on the tug boat.
