Course Hero Study Guides
This study guide will help you understand Barrie Peter Pan, a classic children's novel by J.M. Barrie. The novel tells the story of Peter Pan, a mischievous boy who can fly and never grows up. He lives in Neverland, an island where children never have to grow up and where adventures are always around the corner.
Summary
Peter Pan first appears in Barrie's 1902 play Peter Pan, or The Boy Who Wouldn't Grow Up. The play was a huge success, and Barrie later adapted it into a novel, which was published in 1911. The novel tells the story of Peter Pan's adventures with the Darling children, Wendy, John, and Michael. The children follow Peter to Neverland, where they meet the Lost Boys, Tinker Bell, and other magical creatures.
In Neverland, the children have many adventures. They fight pirates, meet mermaids, and explore the island's many secrets. However, they also learn that Neverland is not without its dangers. The children must face their fears and learn to grow up in order to return home.
Peter Pan is a classic children's story that has been enjoyed by generations of readers. The novel's themes of childhood, imagination, and growing up are still relevant today.
