It tells the story of Wendy Darling, her brothers and their adventures with Peter Pan and his gang of Lost Boys in Neverland.

They also meet Peter's sidekick, Tinkerbell the fairy, and his enemy--Captain Hook. Peter Pan has been adapted to the stage and screen many times and is a children's classic.
