J. M. Barrie’s classic play about the boy who wouldn’t grow up first debuted on stage in London in 1904. Based on a character Barrie introduced in his 1902 novel “The Little White Bird”, Peter Pan and his Lost Boys became an instant success after they first appeared. Barrie continued to make changes to his now iconic tale and adapted the play into the novel “Peter and Wendy”, published in 1911. This is the Peter Pan the world has become so familiar with and has inspired countless adaptations for both the stage and screen. It is the iconic story of how Peter meets Wendy, a normal girl who agrees to accompany Peter back to his home in Neverland so that she can become a mother to his gang, the Lost Boys. Along with her brothers, John and Michael, Wendy meets the fairy Tinkerbell, the rowdy Lost Boys who refuse to grow up, and the fearsome Captain Hook. Included here with Barrie’s novel of perpetual childhood are the first chapters of Peter’s story from “The Little White Bird”, later published as the book “Peter Pan in Kensington Gardens”. This edition includes a biographical afterword.
