Anderson, J. (2012). Tiger Lily. New York, NY: HarperTeen.
Intended Audience: Ages 10 and older
Genre: Fantasy
Personal Reaction: Tiger Lily is the story of Neverland as told by Tinker Bell, Tink for short. Tink is a faerie and finds herself attached to Tiger Lily, following her wherever she goes, attempting to communicate with and helping her. Tiger Lily meets Peter Pan and falls for him, but loses track of time when her father becomes sick and loses Peter forever when he moves to London to grow old.
For those who have a love of the Disney version of Peter Pan this is what takes place before Disney's story. In this we understand how Tiger Lily fits into the storyline. The greatest moment of the book was when Peter stopped fearing adulthood and Tiger Lily became comfortable with who she was and a member of her tribe. This was a wonderful story, one I will recommend to others.
Author Facts: Jodi Lynn Anderson loves Russian books (the longer the better). She plays the banjo and enjoys knitting and riding her bike.
