Sinopse

J. M. Barrie's 'The Little White Bird; Or, Adventures in Kensington Gardens' is a charming and whimsical tale that explores the enchanting world of Kensington Gardens through the eyes of an adult narrator who befriends a young boy named David. The book is a blend of fantasy, romance, and introspection, with Barrie's signature wit and imaginative storytelling shining through. Written in a lyrical and poetic style, the narrative transports readers to a magical realm where fairies, birds, and children mingle in a timeless dance of innocence and wonder. The book's exploration of childhood and the power of imagination makes it a classic piece of children's literature, predating Barrie's more famous work, 'Peter Pan.' J. M. Barrie, a Scottish novelist and playwright, was known for his ability to capture the essence of childhood in his works. Inspired by his own experiences and observations, Barrie crafted stories that continue to resonate with readers of all ages. His fascination with the purity and innocence of youth is evident in 'The Little White Bird,' where he celebrates the joys and sorrows of growing up. I highly recommend 'The Little White Bird; Or, Adventures in Kensington Gardens' to anyone who appreciates timeless tales of magic, friendship, and the beauty of childhood. Barrie's masterful storytelling and profound insights into human nature make this book a must-read for both children and adults seeking to reconnect with the wonder of imagination.

    “Sure to tickle the funny bone and satisfy the taste for some gruesome adventure while appealing to both girls and boys. A fun read.” —School Library Journal 
     
    Something mysterious and terrible is happening throughout Victorian London: Ghosts are disap­pearing. When this reaches the attention of the Ghost Bureau, the diligent but clueless Mr. Lapsewood, a paranormal paper-pusher, is sent to investigate, and what he discovers is grave. The Black Rot has arrived—a voracious spiritual infestation whereby empty haunted houses suck in unsuspecting ghosts and imprison them. Lapsewood’s investigation weaves through the stories of several other memorable characters—living and dead—including an undertaker’s son who can see ghosts, a serial throat-slasher reminiscent of Jack the Ripper, an evangelical exorcist, and many more. The living and dead must work together if they hope to destroy the Black Rot—before it destroys both the ghost and human worlds.  
     
    “Jones has crafted a menacing, spooky Victorian London full of criminals and unfinished business, which is well balanced by the biting satire and buffoonery of the Bureau. Add to that a cast of fascinating, well-wrought characters—from the smarmy and threatening Jack, to the precocious, pot-stirring aspiring journalist Clara—and it’s a winning combination of macabre atmosphere, whimsical antics, and heartfelt, earnest friendship.” —Booklist (starred review)
