CHAPTER SIX THE JOLLY ROGER There is a yellow moon in the night sky. The folly Roger is in the bay near Kidd's Creek. The children are on the pirate ship. They are prisoners of Captain Hook and his cruel pirates. Captain Hook looks at them and says, 'This time it's Peter Pan or me! You idiots! Peter Pan can't save you now.' Hook laughs and then calls Smee. 'Smee, get the plank ready!' 'Yes sir!' says Smee. 'Now listen to me,' says Hook. 'You must all walk the plank!' 'Walk the plank?' asks John. 'Yes! First you walk the plank and then you fall into the sea with the crocodile. It will eat you! Ha, ha!' laughs Hook. 'But I can save two of you. I want two young pirates. Who wants to be a pirate?' The Lost Boys look at John. John looks at Michael and says, 'The life of a pirate is exciting. I don't want to walk the plank. I don't want to be food for the crocodile. Let's be pirates!' Michael looks at his brother. Then they look at Wendy. She doesn't like their idea. Captain Hook laughs and moves his hook in front…

CHAPTER FIVE THE UNDERGROUND HOME The Underground Home is a secret place. No one knows where it is. It is a happy, warm place. There is only one room with a big fireplace. Tinker Bell has her tiny room too. Wendy is a perfect mother. She cooks and sews for everyone. She also tells beautiful bedtime stories. The Lost Boys are happy because they finally have a mother. John and Michael are happy because there is a new adventure every day. Peter Pan is a perfect father. He brings home food and protects the family. Wendy and Peter play with the children and laugh with them. But one night something happens. Wendy tells the children this bedtime story: 'In the big city of London there are two parents. They are very sad because they cannot find their three children. Every night they leave the nursery window open. They wait and wait for their children to return. But they don't return. Poor parents! They are very sad without their children.' 'Oh, Wendy, this is the story of our parents,' says John. 'Yes, it is,' says…

CHAPTER FOUR THE MERMAID'S LAGOON One summer evening Peter, Wendy, John, Michael and the Lost Boys go to the Mermaid's Lagoon. Beautiful mermaids live here and they are Peter's friends. They swim and play in the blue lagoon. Then they sit on Marooner's Rock to comb their long hair. They sit in the sun and laugh. The children like the mermaids and John says, 'I want to catch one!' He tries, but the mermaid jumps into the water. Peter says, 'It is very difficult to catch a mermaid.' Suddenly someone says, 'Look, the pirates are coming!' A small boat with two pirates is coming to the lagoon. John, Michael and the Lost Boys jump off the rock and swim away. But Wendy stays with Peter. They hide behind the rock. Peter sees Tiger Lily. She is sitting in the small boat. Poor Tiger Lily is a prisoner of the pirates. 'Let's leave her on this rock. When the sea rises, she will die!' says Smee. The two pirates laugh. It is already night and it is very dark. Peter wants to save Tiger Lily and thinks of something…

CHAPTER THREE THE NEVERLAND Wendy, John and Michael fly over cities, towns, mountains, forests and seas. Finally they see an island in the sea below them. 'Look, that's Neverland,' says Peter. 'Neverland!' say the children. In Neverland the Lost Boys live in the forest in a secret underground home. There are six Lost Boys: Slightly Soiled, Tootles, Nibs, Curly and the Twins. They are waiting for Peter. Suddenly they hear the voices of the pirates. Nibs is very brave. He goes out, hides behind a tree and looks around him. He sees the horrible pirates. They are walking in the forest. They are big and ugly. Their pirate ship is the Jolly Roger. The pirates' captain is James Hook. He is a cruel pirate and a very bad man. He's got black eyes, black hair and a black beard. He hates Peter Pan. He's only got one arm. The other is a hook! In the past Peter Pan cut off Captain Hook's right arm during a fight. A crocodile ate the arm. Now the crocodile follows Captain Hook everywhere because he wants to eat him. The…

CHAPTER TWO THE SHADOW The children are sleeping and dreaming. Suddenly the window opens. A small ball of light enters the nursery and flies around. It is a lovely fairy called Tinker Bell. She is looking for something. After a moment a young boy enters the nursery and says, 'Tink, where are you? Please find my shadow.' Tinker Bell finds his shadow in the drawer and gives it to him. 'Now I can stick the shadow to my feet with some soap,' he thinks. He tries and tries again, but he can't. He is very confused and starts crying. Wendy wakes up and sees the boy but she is not afraid. His clothes are made of leaves. 'Little boy, why are you crying?' Wendy asks. The boy takes off his cap and asks, 'What's your name?' 'Wendy Moira Angela Darling. What's yours?' 'Peter Pan.' 'Is that all?' 'Yes!' says Peter. Then he thinks, 'My name is very, very short.' Wendy looks at his shadow and asks, 'Can I help you with your shadow?' 'Yes, please!' says Peter. Wendy gets her sewing basket and sews on Peter's shadow. After a…
