Peter Pan and Tinkerbell lead the three Darling children over the rooftops of London and away to Neverland — the island where the lost boys play. Magic and mischief is in the air but if villainous Captain Hook has his way, before long someone will be swimming with the crocodiles . . .

Wendy knows that all children have to grow up… all apart from the magical Peter Pan! When Peter flies through the nursery window and invites Wendy and her brothers, John and Michael, to come to Never-Never-Land, they set off on the adventure of a lifetime…With specially-commissioned cover designs by Kayla Stark, J. M. Barrie’s best-loved tale of Lost Boys, mermaids, pirates and a boy who will never grow up is sure to enchant readers aged 8 and up.

The magical Peter Pan comes to the night nursery of the Darling children, Wendy, John and Michael. He teaches them to fly, then takes them through the sky to Never-Never Land, where they find wolves, Mermaids and… Pirates. The leader of the pirates is the sinister Captain Hook. His hand was bitten off by a crocodile, who, as Captain Hook explains `liked me arm so much that he has followed me ever since, licking his lips for the rest of me`. After lots of adventures, the story reaches its exciting climax as Peter, Wendy and the children do battle with Captain Hook and his band.This edition also includes Peter Pan in Kensington Gardens which is the magical tale that first introduces Peter Pan, the little boy who never grows any older. He escapes his human form and flies to Kensington Gardens, where all his happy memories are, and meets the fairies, the thrushes, and Old Caw the crow. The fairies think he is too human to be allowed to stay in after Lock-out time, so he flies off to an island which divides the Gardens from the more grown-up Hyde Park — Peter`s adventures, and how he eventually meets Mamie and the goat, are delightfully illustrated by Arthur Rackham.
