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.

Yet again, Edie sets off on an exciting adventure, this time to discover who has been contacting her grandpa and why. Along the way, she visits Washington DC and the Outer Banks of North Carolina before a dramatic climax in Dartmoor.
Can Edie uncover a hidden crime and bring the perpetrators to justice once agai
Throughout the book and the series, Anthony explores how things are not always what they seem - how our 'thinking' often represents our imagined reality rather than what is necessarily true - and examines the nature of the link between thoughts and feelings. In so doing he gives readers the tools they need to understand their thoughts and emotions better and to connect with their inner wellbeing so that they can live happier, more fulfilled lives.
