Peter Pan / J. M. Barrie / 248 pages / Vintage Children's Literature Challenge

This original, classic Peter Pan was performed by Jim Dale, who has numerous awards to his credit.  It is, of course, the story of how Peter came to meet Wendy, John, and Michael Darling, and their adventures in Neverland.  Here we meet the mermaids left out of the internationally famous version starring Mary Martin.  Ridley Pearson and Dave Barry have written the Peter and the Starcatchers series in which the mermaids figure prominently.
