The children behind Peter Pan

December 15th, 2003

[via Bookslut] Last Thursday BBC News reported on the discovery at Exeter University of a photo album of photos possibly taken by J. M. Barrie. The album was found in vaults containing a collection of Daphne du Maurier’s papers and feature the Llewelyn-Davies children, who were the inspiration for Barrie’s Lost Boys. The BBC article includes a gallery of images from the album.

As an aside, although most of my recent posts have been about children’s literature, I have not changed the overall theme/topic of this weblog–at least, not yet. It simply seems that lately children’s literature-related news and stories have been catching my attention.
