Summary

Peter Pan, or, The Boy Who Would Not Grow Up is a novel by J.M. Barrie. This beloved book tells the story of Peter Pan, a mischievous and adventurous boy who can fly and never ages. Peter lives in the magical world of Neverland and is the leader of the Lost Boys. The play opens in the Darling family's nursery in London, where Peter Pan visits and captivates Wendy, John, and Michael Darling with tales of Neverland. He teaches them to fly using fairy dust provided by Tinker Bell, a fairy who is jealous of Wendy's relationship with Peter. In Neverland, the children encounter a host of fantastical characters, including mermaids, Native Americans, and pirates. The most notorious of these pirates is the villainous Captain Hook, who seeks revenge against Peter Pan for cutting off his hand and feeding it to a crocodile. This crocodile, having developed a taste for Hook, follows him constantly, hoping for more.

    Can something small matter at all? Of course it can! In this book for young readers (who know a thing or two about being small), you can take a super close look at details too little to be seen with the human eye. Powerful shots from scanning electron microscopes show shark skin, bird feathers, the hairs on a honeybee's eye, and so much more, proving that tiny details can make a BIG difference.

    A brilliantly funny story of what happens when a galactic princess moves in next door and almost brings about the end of the world. Exciting new fiction from the bestselling, award-winning author of My Brother is a Superhero.

Gavin's got a new neighbour and she's really annoying. Niki follows him everywhere, bosses him about, and doesn't care that her parents will obliterate Earth with their galactic warships if she doesn't stop running away from them. Can Niki and Gavin sort out the alien despots (aka Mum and Dad) and save the planet? Possibly. Will they become friends along the way? Doubtful...
