Description

Bookseller Review

I am a huge Peter Pan fan, so I was extremely excited to read this and I was not disappointed. Three children are needed to help Neverland and maybe themselves too. Tom is in the hospital getting treatment for his illness and has been there for a while, Felix is his best friend and misses him dreadfully and Daisy, whose mum is a doctor at the hospital and works so much that Daisy feels lonely, are brought together by the gargoyles of the hospital chapel. With magic and a little fairy dust they embark on the adventure of a lifetime with fairies, dragons, mermaids, and pirates. The story is fast paced and brilliantly written. I don’t think I had thought that not all children know the directions to Neverland, but I am very glad the stories are being brought to a whole new generation. There are the little gems throughout that nod to the original story which I loved, and I have never been so happy to realise that it is the first in a series. Just brilliant for any child that loves an adventure
