There was no way any parent could begin to imagine what would happen that fateful night. Certainly Mr. and Mrs. Darling were unprepared for what they saw through the nursery window as they returned to their three chidren, Wendy, Michael, and John, flying, chasing after a boy they had never seen before, a boy with the look of mischief all about him! Rushing up the stairs they arrived--too late. The nursery was empty and dark, the window open, and the children gone. So begins the darling children's greatest adventure--one of the most enduring fantasies of all time. With this stunning new edition of J.M. Barrie's classic tale, Scott Gustafson brings this remarkable story to life for today's children, capturing the limitless possibilities in a world of make believe. The full range of the Neverland's denizens, from magical mermaids and bumbling pirates to the dreaded Captain Hook, leap out in exquisitely detailed portraits. Hairbreadth escapes, the wonders of flight, and the secret underground world of the Lost Boys are all revealed in richly colored, dramatic scenes. And watching all over is Peter Pan, mischievous, daring, unstoppable, and unforgettable, his promise fulfilled in Gustafson' slavish illustrations: to never fade or grow old, but to always embody the eternal world of a child's imagination.
