2. Peter Pan
The boy who never grew up
Peter Pan – the play has been
in existence since 1904 and
was written by J.M. Barrie

3. The main story line of Peter Pan?
• Peter Pan was the boy who would never grow up. He was able
to fly and spend his time in these crazy adventures on the island
of Neverland as a leader of his gang called the lost boys. Peter
Pan had adventures with mermaids, fairies and pirates.

4. Why is this a favorite story
• I think I like the fact that Peter Pan never
grew up. Took life in stride. Never had a
care in the world, and was kind of cocky and
wild.
