"Peter Pan in Kensington Gardens" by J. M. Barrie is a novel published in 1906. A seven-day-old infant who believes he can fly escapes his London home and returns to Kensington Gardens, only to discover he is stranded between bird and human.

In this magical world after the park gates close, he encounters lost children, misunderstands simple games, and meets a little girl who changes everything.
