Features: This is a fantasy work that creates a highly appealing fairy-tale realm—Neverland. The author vividly portrays the childlike joy on Neverland and celebrates the beauty and innocence of the heart. On Neverland, children are familiar with fairies, pirates, red men, and mermaids from fairy tales. In their underground home with mushrooms as chimneys, life is carefree and joyful. The "war" between Peter and the pirates, and between the pirates and the red men, clearly reflects the imprint of children's war games.
