What I found interesting in this book, beside the wonderful plot, the magic characters, the adventurous moments and scenes is the notion of the boy that never grows-up. This notion was based on M. Barrie's older brother, who died when he was little and his mother got ill because of that. She continued to believe that her boy remained little. Eventually, this unhappy event influenced a bit the author’s way of writing.
The characters from this book: Peter Pan, Tinker Bell, Wendy, Captain Hook are very beloved by children nowadays and in my opinion this book is a good reading either for children or adults because it introduces you in another world which is magical.
