Peter Pan's Shadows in the Literary Imagination
This book is a literary analysis of J.M. Barrie's Peter Pan in all its different versions -- key rewritings, dramatisations, prequels, and sequels -- and includes a synthesis of the main critical interpretations of the text over its history. A comprehensive and intelligent study of the Peter Pan phenomenon, this study discusses the book's complicated textual history, exploring its origins in the Harlequinade theatrical tradition and British pantomime in the nineteenth century. Stirling investigates potential textual and extra-textual sources for Peter Pan, the critical tendency to seek sources in Barrie's own biography, and the proliferation of prequels and sequels aiming to explain, contextualize, or close off, Barrie's exploration of the imagination. The sources considered include Dave Barry and Ridley Pearson's Starcatchers trilogy, Régis Loisel's six-part Peter Pan graphic novel in French (1990-2004), Andrew Birkin's The Lost Boys series, the films Hook (1991), Peter Pan (2003) and Finding Neverland (2004), and Geraldine McCaughrean's \"official sequel\" Peter Pan in Scarlet (2006), among others.

(Re)Writing Reality
Every time we ask students to write about themselves or their communities, we are asking them to be vulnerable. We are asking them to examine the world in which they live, break down their protective walls, and expose themselves to the feelings that result from the broken barriers. Therefore, when we ask students to write, we are asking them to be courageous enough to share their truths with us, despite the intense level of openness required to do so. Yet, even though it requires students to be vulnerable, writing enables them to name problems they face, to show adults assets where we might see deficits, and to reframe who they are. This idea of writing as a vulnerable yet beneficial practice drives the work of the Deep Center, a nonprofit organization in Savannah, Georgia. Deep was created with the mission to empower young people to thrive as learners, community leaders, and agents of change.
