Barrie, in the form of a 1904 play and a 1911 novel.Although the character appeared previously in Barrie's book the small White Bird, the play and its novelisation contain the story of Peter Pan mythos that's best known. the 2 versions differ in some details of the story, but have much in common. In both versions Peter makes night-time calls on the Darlings' house in Bloomsbury, [4] listening in on Mrs. Mary Darling's bedtime stories by the open window. One night Peter is spotted and, while trying to flee, he loses his shadow. On returning to say it, Peter wakes Mary's daughter, Wendy Darling. Wendy succeeds in re-attaching his shadow to him, and Peter learns that she knows many bedtime stories. He invites her to Neverland to be a mother to his gang, the Lost Boys, children who were lost in Kensington Gardens. Wendy agrees, and her brothers John and Michael go along.Their magical flight to Neverland is followed by many adventures. the youngsters are blown out of the air by a cannon and Wendy is almost killed by the Lost Boy Tootles. Peter and therefore the Lost Boys build a touch house for Wendy to measure in while she recuperates (a sort of structure that to the present day is named a Wendy house). Soon John and Michael adopt the ways of the Lost Boys.Illustration by F. D. Bedford from the primary editionPeter welcomes Wendy to his underground home, and she or he immediately assumes the role of woman . Peter takes the Darlings on several adventures, the primary truly dangerous one occurring at Mermaids' Lagoon. At Mermaids' Lagoon, Peter and therefore the Lost Boys save the princess Tiger Lily and get entangled during a battle with the pirates, including the evil Captain Hook. Hook is Peter's nemesis who is hunted by a crocodile which bit off his left and needs to eat the remainder of him. he's named after the hook that replaced his missing hand. The crocodile also swallowed a ticking clock, so Hook is scared of all ticking sounds. Peter is wounded when Hook claws him. He believes he will die, stranded on a rock when the tide is rising, but he views death as "an awfully big adventure". Luckily, a bird allows him to use her nest as a ship, and Peter sails home.In gratitude for his saving Tiger Lily, her tribe guard his home from subsequent imminent pirate attack. Meanwhile, Wendy begins to fall crazy with Peter and asks him what quite feelings he has for her. Peter says that he's like her faithful son. at some point while telling stories to the Lost Boys and her brothers, John and Michael, Wendy recalls her parents then decides to require them back and return to England. Unfortunately, and unbeknownst to Peter, Wendy and therefore the boys are captured by Captain Hook, who also tries to poison Peter's medicine while the boy is asleep. When Peter awakes, he learns from the fairy Tinker Bell that Wendy has been kidnapped - in an attempt to please Wendy, he goes to drink his medicine. Tink doesn't have time to warn him of the poison, and instead drinks it herself, causing her near death. Tink tells him she might be saved if children believed in fairies. In one among the play's most famous moments, Peter turns to the audience watching the play and begs those that believe fairies to clap their hands.
