Notes[]
- The only sibling that Peter Pan had in the original story was a younger brother but in some later adaptions this was sometimes changed to him also having or instead a sister usually younger but occasionally older. Here Peter is shown to be the youngest in the family similar to Peter Littleton
- In the original story-line Wendy Darling was always portrayed as the eldest with her brothers being younger, but here it's reversed.
