"J.M. Barrie's fantasy adventure with pirates, mermaids, and
fairies, brought to life in a new book-and-CD edition."
Peter Pan refuses to grow up. Instead he spends his never-ending
childhood making mischief and seeking out adventure as leader of
the Lost Boys on the small island of Neverland. His only cares in
the world are stopping the pirates, led by the dangerous Captain
Hook, from hurting any of his friends. Occasionally he even gets to
see kids from the ordinary world, but he has never brought one
back.
Until he meets Wendy Darling...
With Hear It Read It, Sourcebooks is proud to introduce a new
take on this classic story, in a sturdy hardcover that children
will return to again and again. For generations parents and
grandparents have shared the classics with children as they start
to read and "graduate" from ABCs to picture books to chapter books.
These tales need no introduction: they are the same stories that
were read to them, the very same adventures that filled their
imaginations and taught them the power of the word to change and
challenge.

readers to chapter books. It includes not only the abridged story
and 20 engaging black and white illustrations, but also the same
version read on audio CD, letting kids choose how to enjoy: listen

themselves.
The CD is produced by Naxos, a leader in junior classics on
audio, and read by film and television actor Samuel West, with
music and occasional effects to set the mood.
