Peter Pan

Peter Pan, a boy who will not grow up. He runs away on the
day of his birth so that he will not have to become a man. He
lives in Neverland, home of the fairies, protected by his
friends the Indians against his enemy, Captain Hook. He is
attracted to the Darling home by the stories the mother tells
her children. He persuades the Darling children to visit
Neverland and teaches them to fly.
Wendy Darling
Wendy Darling, an English girl who, with her two brothers,
flies off to Neverland for a visit. She mothers Peter Pan and
the lost boys, telling them stories at bedtime and tucking them
in. After her return home, she goes to Neverland once a year
to clean Peter Pans house. Each year, as she grows up, she
and Peter Pan drift farther apart, until at last he cannot
understand her at all.

overboard and is eaten by a crocodile who, having earlier

tasted the captains arm, waits patiently for the rest of his
victim.
