Having just managed to get my two and a half year old GC to sit still for 30 minutes and listen while she's being read to, I was taken aback to discover that my local library didn't have a copy of Peter Pan! I ordered a copy off Amazon but was dismayed to discover the very stuffy language at the start and my listener was losing interest waiting for the flying stuff and the fun. (She was very confused that the dog was the children's nana!)
I'd told her I would bring her a very exciting book with fairies and pirates and crocodiles for us to 'read' together next week and then had to break my promise and take her a modern day book which was a disappointing substitute.
Does anyone have any recommendations as to who might produce a slimmed down version and where I can still get one (preferably with beautiful illustrations) I thought maybe Ladybird or Disney?
Appreciate any recommendations
