The book is about the story of Peter Pan, a mischievous little boy who can fly and has many adventures on the island of Neverland. The story involves the characters Wendy Darling and her two brothers John and Michael, Peter's fairy Tinker Bell, the Lost Boys, and the pirate Captain Hook. The play and novel were inspired by Barrie's friendship with the Llewelyn Davies family. The play debuted in London in 1904 and has since been adapted into various forms, including a pantomime, a stage musical, a television special, and several films. Barrie created Peter Pan in stories he told to the sons of his friend Sylvia Llewelyn Davies. The character's name comes from two sources: Peter Llewelyn Davies, one of the boys, and Pan, the mischievous Greek god of the woodlands. The story has a slight romantic aspect, which is sometimes played down or omitted completely. In 1929, Barrie gave the copyright of the Peter Pan works to Great Ormond Street Hospital, a children's hospital in London.
