List of books based on Peter Pan

In 1907, Scottish playwright James Matthew Barrie wrote a play called Peter Pan, or the Boy Who wouldn't Grow Up. Four years later, he adapted the play into a novel titled Peter and Wendy, otherwise known simply as Peter Pan. The novel had a couple other books written by Barrie which expanded upon the titular character Peter Pan.

One hundred years later, the story of Peter Pan has been retold or continued in multiple books with many variations on the characters and story.
