A Storyteller Book: Peter Pan (Storyteller Books) - Hardcover

A charming retelling of J M Barrie's classic tale about the little boy who refused to grow up, specially adapted by Lesley Young. Bright illustrations by Jenny Press portray Peter's exciting adventures in Never-Never Land with the fairy Tinker Bell and his new friends Wendy, John and Michael. You can meet Tiger Lily, the brave Indian chief, and the villainous pirates commanded by Captain Hook. The lively narrative is carefully worded to appeal to youngsters - perfect for reading aloud to small children, or for more confident readers to enjoy by themselves. Little Wendy Darling awakes one night to find Peter Pan in the bedroom she shares with her brothers, John and Michael. Peter is searching for his missing shadow. After Wendy helps Peter to reattach the shadow, he offers to take her and her brothers to the magical realm of Never-Never Land. This is a world inhabited by mermaids, the Lost Boys - children who fell out of their prams when their mothers were not looking - friendly Indians and terrifying pirates. Together, Peter and his pals do battle against the pirates' infamous leader, Captain Hook...
