Peter Pan is a free-spirited and mischievous young boy who can fly and never grows up. He spends his never-ending childhood having adventures on the mythical island of Neverland as the leader of the Lost Boys, interacting with fairies, pirates, mermaids, Native Americans, and occasionally ordinary children from the world outside Neverland.

Peter Pan has become a cultural icon symbolizing youthful innocence and escapism. He must forget his own adventures and what he learns about the world in order to stay childlike. His name and playing the flute or pipes suggest the Greek god and mythological character Pan. 

When we left off, Mrs. Darling waits patiently and sorrowfully for her children to return home, keeping the nursery window unlocked and opened just in case. Peter and Tinkerbell arrive with a devious plan to secretly close and lock the window, but at the last minute, Peter has a change of heart. The Darling children then fly home to their parents. Afterwards, the 6 lost boys make their appearance and ask if they can be adopted as well.

When we left off, Wendy and Peter end up on Marooner’s Rock with the tide coming in after a fight with the pirates. They are both too weak to swim to shore or fly for home. The tide is getting higher and higher on the rock. Suddenly Michael and John’s kite drifts across the rock. The kite is too small to lift them both, so Peter tells Wendy to grab on and let it carry her home, sacrificing himself.
