The Boy Who Wouldn't Grow Up
Blurb[]
- It is a common myth that all children grow up. Peter knows that this myth is a lie. He wants to grow up; thus, it’s his fate not to. And so he’s resigned to a childhood spent in a hospital ward, buried beneath the blankets, never privy to the adventures that lie just beyond the window.
- Everything changes when Pan arrives.
- The impish boy sprinkles the children with fairy dust and whisks them off to Neverland. It’s there that Peter learns how to fly, how to laugh, how to love, how to fight, how to dance, how to trust, how to believe, and how to have an adventure. It’s there that he learns that Lost Boys can make excellent pirates and pirates can make excellent Lost Boys. It’s there that he learns that there are more important things than growing up. It’s there that he learns that there are people who make growing up worth it. It’s there that he learns that he is, and always will be, a Lost Boy.
