J.M. Barrie

When Peter Pan suddenly shows up in the nursery of the Darling children, he brings them into a world of adventure and fantasy. Taking them to Never-Never land, they meet Indians, wolves, mermaids and pirates, including the sinister Captain Hook. 176 pages, softcover.

Since making his debut on the stage in 1904, this eternal youth has carried boys and girls off to magical, marvelous Neverland. It's a trip that all kids want to make, and with this easy-to-read version of the classic, everyone can fly "second to the right, and straight on till morning" with Peter. Along with Wendy, John, and Michael Darling, they'll meet the fairy Tinkerbell, the Lost Boys, and the menacing Captain Hook.

Peter Pan-a little boy who doesn't want to grow up-has run off to Never-Never Land where he becomes the leader of a wild tribe of Lost Boys. This amazing fantasy land is also home to Tinker Bell the fairy, the Indian princess Tiger Lily, and a ragtag band of pirates led by Peter's longtime enemy, Captain Hook. Recommended for ages 8 and up.
