Publisher Description
When Peter Pan flies through the Darling Children's nursery window one night, he is nearly captured and makes a hasty escape, leaving behind his shadow. Returning with the fairy Tinker Bell to reclaim it, he wakes up Wendy, John and Michael, and whisks them away to the magical shores of Neverland.
There they meet the Lost Boys, befriend Tiger Lily and her Braves, swim with the mermaids in the lagoon and have a host of wonderful adventures. But danger awaits too, for the terrible Captain Hook and his pirate gang are determined to make them walk the plank...
Abridged by Marin Jarvis, JM Barrie's timeless masterpiece is introduced by Michael Morpurgo and read by ten star actors: Kit Harrington, Martin Jarvis, Alex Jennings, Alex Kingston, Joanna Lumley, Helen McCrory, Jennifer Saunders, Juliet Stevenson, David Walliams and Zoe Wanamaker.

Customer Reviews
I wish I understood the abridging choices
The voice work is amazing but I genuinely do not understand some of the abridging choices. Peter saying he’s “going to tell the boys” makes no sense if you cut the exchange where Peter asks Wendy to finish the story of Cinderella he had been coming to hear, and there’s a ton of other lacking context pieces due to the abridging.
This is abridged.
Book is abridged and does not say so until well into the description. Wasted my money as now I have to go buy a different audio book. Please advertise abridgment more clearly. I want a refund.
Thank you
