Bookroo's summary

Stepsisters Lily and Wendy face a summer apart due to feuding parents. But when a mysterious boy named Peter Pan whisks them away to Neverland, they encounter wild creatures, merfolk, and pirates. As they navigate this enchanting yet perilous world, they must confront the challenges threatening their family and friendship. Will they find a way back home, or will Neverland change them forever?

From the publisher

In this modern take of the popular classic Peter Pan, award-winning author Cynthia Leitich Smith (Muscogee Creek) brilliantly shifts the focus from the boy who won’t grow up to Native American Lily and English Wendy—stepsisters who must face both dangers and wonders to find their way back to the family they love.

Stepsisters Lily and Wendy embark on a high-flying journey of magic, adventure, and courage—to a fairy-tale island known as Neverland.

Lily and Wendy have been best friends since they became stepsisters. But with their feuding parents planning to spend the summer apart, what will become of their family—and their friendship?

Little do they know that a mysterious boy has been watching them from the oak tree outside their window. A boy who intends to take them away from home for good, to an island of wild animals, Merfolk, Fairies, and kidnapped children.

A boy who calls himself Peter Pan.
