Fix this textTHE MOST POPULAR STATUE
Fix this textIN LONDON,
Fix this textFAMOUS PETER PAN
Fix this textr J' I HE secret ambition of almost every
Fix this textLondoner is to retire and live in the
Fix this textcountry. This ambition may not always
Fix this textbe achieved, so he either lives in the
Fix this textsuburbs and has a garden, or in the
Fix this textmetropolis and has a window-box. But
Fix this textin either case the Londoner takes his
Fix this textleisure in one of the many parks or open
Fix this textspaces with which the city abounds. One
Fix this textof the most attractive is Kensington
Fix this textGardens, which lie to the west of Hyde
Fix this textPark.
Fix this textIt is the playground of children and of
Fix this textdogs, and at certain times of the year it
Fix this textprovides grazing for sheep. It has a
Fix this textRound Pond on which model yachts are
Fix this textsailed and it has Kensington Palace, where
Fix this textthe youthful Victoria became Queen in
Fix this text1837. It also has the most popular statue
Fix this textin London —that of Peter Pan, Sir James
Fix this textBarrie’s immortal hero and the “boy who
Fix this textwouldn’t grow up.” The statue stands
Fix this textnear the bridge end of the Long Water,
Fix this textas this section of the Serpentine is
Fix this textknown. Here, amidst trees and shrubs
Fix this textwhere the swans glide by on the quiet
Fix this textwater, Peter Pan stands surrounded by
Fix this textthe scene of his many stirring adventures
Fix this textin Kensington Gardens, recounted in the
Fix this textstory written in 1906. He stands on a tree
Fix this textstump, piping while a fairy tiptoes to his
Fix this textfeet and an old rock sits in a cranny.
Fix this textRabbits nibble around the roots of the
Fix this texttree, a hare sits on a mushroom-shelf with
Fix this texther young one crouching beside her, rats
Fix this textpeep out of holes and climb about, while
Fix this texttwo fairies talk to a squirrel.
Fix this textThe statue by Sir George Frampton
Fix this textand cast in bronze never fails to attract
Fix this textthe attention and admiration of all those
Fix this textwho Visit Kensington Gardens. Near the
Fix this textRound Pond is the Elfin Oak, a tree
Fix this textcarved with figures of elves and gnomes.
Fix this textFlower walks ablaze with color in Spring
Fix this textand Summer, and secluded dells are other
Fix this textfeatures of these attractive gardens in the
Fix this textheart of London.
