What this book is about

Peter Pan, the boy who refused to grow up, whisks Wendy and her brothers away to Neverland, where pirates, fairies, mermaids, and the Lost Boys await. Captain Hook seeks revenge, Tinker Bell seethes with jealousy, and the eternal question of whether growing up is a gift or a loss hangs over every adventure. Barrie's magical play-turned-novel invented one of literature's most enduring figures and asks profound questions wrapped in gleeful fantasy.
