Publisher Description
This beautiful HarperCollins Children’s Classics edition of J. M. Barrie’s Peter Pan is the perfect addition to any bookshelf.
One night, the mythical Peter Pan appears in the nursery of Wendy, John and Michael Darling and an extraordinary adventure begins.
With a sprinkle of Tinker Bell’s fairy dust, Peter teaches the three children to fly and whisks them away to Neverland. There they embark on daring adventures with mermaids, fairies, lost boys – and the vengeful pirate Captain Hook.
Since his creation, J. M. Barrie’s boy who wouldn’t grow up has become a cultural icon, and this witty, imaginative story full of mischief, magic and bravery is one of the best-loved children’s classics of all time.

About the author
James Matthew Barrie was born in Kirriemuir, Scotland in 1860. He originally wrote ‘Peter Pan’ as a play and its first performance in 1904 was a hit. Barrie then adapted the play into the 1911 novel ‘Peter Pan and Wendy’. He was made a baronet in 1913 and awarded the Order of Merit in 1922. J. M. Barrie died in 1937.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
A number of classic children's books return in milestone and reissued editions for a new generation. J.M. Barrie's enchanting Peter Pan: 100th Anniversary Edition features a large trim for reading aloud and rich, detailed illustrations by Michael Hague (which he originally published in 1987). Peter Pan's flyaway red hair and tattered garment of "skeleton leaves and the juices that ooze out of trees" capture the free spirit of the boy who refused to grow up.
