While Mr. and Mrs. Darling are out for the evening, and Nana the dog is chained up outside, Wendy and her brothers, John and Michael, settle in for the night, dreaming of grand adventures. Then, with a flash and a zoom, Peter Pan and Tinkerbell, the fairy, fly right in the nursery window. Peter, who has come to this window before to listen to all the fantastic stories Wendy tells, has lost his shadow and is back to find it. All that ruckus wakes the children, who are delighted to meet such a unique boy. But, where does he come from, and how did he get in here? Why he flew, from Neverland, where all lost boys end up, of course. If the children believe and think lovely thoughts, they can fly to Neverland, too! There, all the Lost Boys will love Wendy, who can tell stories, mend their pockets, and be like a mother to them all. Well, this is a grand adventure!
Back in Neverland, the Lost Boys eagerly await Peter’s return. It’s hard for them to have their fun and avoid the villainous Captain Hook and his mean band of pirates without Peter to lead them. Those pirates won’t stop looking for Peter and the Boys. Oh, how wonderful those Lost Boys think it is when they meet Wendy. Finally, a mother to take care of them. When the pirates hear of this, their new plan is set—capture all the boys and keep Wendy for their mother. But their fiendish plot fails when Tinkerbell risks her life to save Peter’s. The pirates then turn to the next best plan; lure Peter Pan out of hiding by capturing Tiger Lily. They are right! Peter can’t let anything happen to the lovely princess. They underestimate Peter’s wit and wile, however, and he manages to escape their clutches, rescuing Tiger Lily.
Amid all these escapades, Wendy begins to feel a little neglected by her dear Peter. But, Peter won’t ever grow up, no never, not him. The rest of the Lost Boys would like to return to London and belong to a family. As Wendy starts the journey back home with the Boys, the pirates launch another attack, kidnapping all the children. Peter, with the help of one tick-tocking crocodile, saves the day once again, managing to turn the pirates against their Captain, freeing all the children.
Wendy, John, and Michael return to London, Peter Pan continues to visit Wendy once a year, bringing her back to Neverland to keep things in order. One day, when Peter visits, Wendy can’t make the trip with him. She has grown up and had a child of her own. Now it is little Jane’s turn to journey to the place where dreams are born with the wonderful Peter Pan.
