Local DescriptionPUBLICATION OCTOBER 2017 DescriptionThe ultimate gift for fans of Walt Disney's Peter Pan. This beautiful picture book is illustrated by celebrated Disney artist Mary Blair, who drew the original concept art for the beloved film.
"Just think of something wonderful," Peter said. So Wendy thought of a mermaid lagoon, John thought of a pirate cave and little Michael thought about being a brave Indian warrior. And off they flew.
This is a stunning collector's item that will delight Disney fans young and old. It's perfect for sharing with fairy tale fans aged three years and upwards, as well as appealing to fans of Mary Blair herself and her gorgeous concept artwork. Have you collected all of the Walt Disney Classics: Cinderella, Alice in Wonderland and Peter Pan?
As a young artist, Mary Blair won a scholarship to the Chouinard Art Institute. Having joined Disney, the artistic influence of her concept art was strongly felt in Cinderella, Alice in Wonderland and Peter Pan. After leaving Disney, Mary worked as a freelance graphic designer and illustrator, creating advertising campaigns and illustrating several Little Golden Books, some of which are still in print today.
