Description: <p><i>The Little White Bird</i> is generally divided into three sections: the first chronicles the narrator’s life in London, beginning with how he came to know a little boy named David (who joins him on his adventures), and describes other matters of his everyday life.</p>
			<p>The second section tells the story of how Peter Pan came to be a “betwixt-and-between” and his adventures in Kensington Gardens, including his interactions with the birds as well as the fairies hidden in the park.</p>
			<p>Finally, the third section of the book revisits London with the narrator and David. The two make brief visits to Kensington Gardens and embark on a new adventure to Patagonia.</p>
			<p><i>The Little White Bird</i> is the first story to include the famous Peter Pan character, two years before <i>Peter Pan, or The Boy Who Wouldn’t Grow Up</i>, the play that made the character famous. While <i>The Little White Bird</i> can be described as a prelude to the play, inconsistencies such as Peter Pan’s age make the two stories incompatible.</p>
