this book is for baybes

peter is an orphan with NO memories of his past other than knowing his own name, Peter, and that he once had a family of his own, but he does not remember his own age, so he merely just makes up an age that is greater than other kids' age. one day he and the other orphan boys are sent away onto a boat called the Neverland. onboard of the neverland, peter meets a girl named molly who happens to be a starcatcher, a group of people that try to get starstuff for good causes and to make sure they don't get into the wrong hands. soon after, they find out that a renegade pirate named blackstache is trying to steal the starstuff on the Wasp. the very ship that molly's father is on! the story is mainly about molly, peter, blackstache, and the other orphan boy's adventures

It was a great backstory of Peter Pan's first ever adventures. I highly recommend this crazy, fast pace story.

Peter, an orphaned boy with only one memory of who he thinks is his mother, is aboard a ship that soon crashes onto an island. Peter there learns about the island and a secret about the stardust. I recommend this book to Peter Pan lovers. It's worth the fast-paced ride!

Super creative twist to the Peter Pan story!

A fun,intense and adventures twist on the peter pan story. Really long but definitely worth the read.

AMAZING BOOK!!!!! This has been my favorite book for as long as I can remember! It is the story of how Peter Pan became Peter Pan! I recommend this book for everyone, I read it in 3rd grade, and have read all the books, they are all AMAZING!!!!!!!!!

If you like Dave Barry's books and you want to read one I recommend to read this book first because it is the first one he has made.
