The Little White Bird is a novel written by J.M. Barrie, the creator of Peter Pan. Published in 1902, the book tells the story of a middle-aged man named David who becomes enamored with a young boy named Peter. David takes the boy under his wing and begins to tell him fantastical stories about fairies and adventures. As the story progresses, David becomes more and more obsessed with Peter, and the line between reality and fantasy begins to blur. The book is often considered a precursor to Peter Pan, as it features many of the same themes and ideas that would later be explored in the famous play and novel. The Little White Bird is a poignant and thought-provoking work that explores the nature of childhood, imagination, and the power of storytelling.Has it ever been your lot, reader, to be persecuted by a pretty woman who thinks, without a tittle of reason, that you are bowed down under a hopeless partiality for her? It is thus that I have been pursued for several years now by the unwelcome sympathy of the tender-hearted and virtuous Mary A----. When we pass in the street the poor deluded soul subdues her buoyancy.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
