Peter and Wendy

Peter and Wendy, published in 1911, is J. M. Barrie’s full-length novelization of his beloved play Peter Pan. It tells the story of Peter, the boy who wouldn’t grow up, and his adventures in Neverland with Wendy Darling and her brothers. The novel explores themes of childhood, innocence, memory, and loss with both whimsy and melancholy. Barrie’s lyrical prose and iconic characters—Captain Hook, Tinker Bell, the Lost Boys—make this a timeless classic of children’s literature and imagination.
