Peter Pan : the 1911 classic edition with original illustrations
"All children, except one, grow up." In a world of faith, trust, and pixie dust, where the lost children play, a new adventure is about to begin... When Wendy, John, and Michael Darling find a strange boy in their room one night, their lives are about to change forever. Their mischievous visitor, Peter Pan, and his fairy companion, Tinker Bell, land in the Darling home to look for his shadow, but Peter finds something much more precious there: brave new friends to accompany him on his wondrous journeys. With Peter and Tinker Bell's help, the Darling children learn how to fly and are spirited away over the sleepy London rooftops to discover Neverland--a secret, magical island where pirates, fairies, and mermaids roam the caves and beaches looking for their next adventure...and where the ruthless Captain Hook and his crew look for Peter Pan and his Lost Boys. While they spend their days with magic, games, and endless adventures, the treacherous Captain Hooko and his pirate crew lurk around the corner. Only Peter know the secrets of Neverland and can keep them safe from Hook's clutches. But Peter has a secret: he has no mother or a home to return to, and he will never grow old. Can his new friends help him find the courage to beat Captain Hook and save Neverland once and for all? Join Peter and Tinker Bell on their whimsical journey, and get lost in a world of magic as the Darlings embark on the biggest adventure of their lives!
