  1. Five stars:

    It Came from Neverland by Cynthia Pelayo (2026) recontextualizes the horror elements of Peter Pan in this sequel set during WWI. Mary Darling, now grown up, works at an orphanage and volunteers her time at a hospital. There's enough terror in her day to day life but now she's being visited by a familiar and sinister shadow.

    Je cite :
    un jeune geek prend la parole face aux soutanes noires qui peuplent la salle du Synode, à cheval entre l’Etat du Vatican et le territoire italien : Christopher Olah, trentenaire, milliardaire et cofondateur de l’entreprise d’intelligence artificielle Anthropic.

  6. “Neverland is as much a tomb for the unloved and forgotten as it is a map of a child’s mind. It is a place ruled by a boy with a memory as thin as the skeleton leaves he wears.”

    Through playful multilingual activities, the children discovered that words can open up whole new worlds.
