The book is about the story of Peter Pan, a mischievous little boy who can fly
and has many adventures on the island of Neverland. The story involves the
characters Wendy Darling and her two brothers John and Michael, Peter's fairy
Tinker Bell, the Lost Boys, and the pirate Captain Hook. The play and novel
were inspired by Barrie's friendship with the Llewelyn Davies family. The play
debuted in London in 1904 and has since been adapted into various forms,
including a pantomime, a stage musical, a television special, and several
films. Barrie created Peter Pan in stories he told to the sons of his friend
Sylvia Llewelyn Davies. The character's name comes from two sources: Peter
Llewelyn Davies, one of the boys, and Pan, the mischievous Greek god of the
woodlands. The story has a slight romantic aspect, which is sometimes played
down or omitted completely. In 1929, Barrie gave the copyright of the Peter
Pan works to Great Ormond Street Hospital, a children's hospital in London.
