The Neverland Girl

What happy thought would take you off to Neverland?

The mermaids, so beguiling and wild, who will enchant you to the deep? No, the pirates - salty scoundrels; beware Captain Hook and the plank! Or perhaps the Indians, clever and cunning, who may join the hunt! Could it be the scruffy, loyal band of lost boys always in a game and ready for anything? Maybe the fairies in their vibrant colors, glittering with magic dust! The daring and cheeky Peter Pan himself!

No matter what draws you in, it's time to go back! Now, before the crocodile with his ticking-clock belly gets too far away! But how to get there?

Why, with sweet young Emma, who until just this very moment didn't even know that the place existed!

Emma is a smart, determined nine year old who's secluded from the world for health reasons. By a twist of fate, she meets Callie, a woman who changes her whole life by teaching her to use her imagination when she introduces her to the charming tale of Peter Pan. Emma's not about to let it go when her 'feet-on-the-ground' father says no to foolish fairytales!

With Callie's help, and a bit of leftover pixie dust, the magic world of Peter Pan and Neverland comes to life for Emma. She discovers a way to get to the fantastic island and immediately delights in several thrilling escapades; a dangerous dive with mermaids, rescuing a fallen baby star, and teaming up with the Lost Boys to outwit the dastardly Captain Hook and his mad pack of pirates! Through her adventures there, she finds that she's a true warrior girl, and the real heroine of her own story.

You cannot miss this fairytale full of adventure, imagination, and dreams, with a dash of Peter Pan and a whole lot of Neverland. The Neverland Girl will touch your heart, make you laugh, make you cry, and make you fall in love with the strength and sweetness of one little girl who is determined to live her dreams to the fullest, regardless of what challenges life may give her.

It was 1929 when J.M. Barrie, who wrote Peter Pan, gave the copyright and all royalties for the book and play to the Great Ormond Street Hospital for Children in London, so that Peter Pan could always look after sick kids.

In 1988 Prime Minister Lord Callaghan petitioned Parliament to make the Peter Pan copyright perpetual; you see, all copyrights expire 70 years after the death of the creator in that country. Parliament passed it, and Peter Pan became the copyright that wouldn't grow up, at least in the U.K., and the hospital kept the benefits which contribute to a major part of their funding.

In keeping true to Mr. Barrie, it's only good form that a portion of the royalties from every sale of The Neverland Girl will go to the Great Ormond Street Hospital in the U.K., and to St. Jude's Children's Hospital in the states, so that Peter Pan will continue to take care of little ones who are very sick, as Mr. Barrie intended. Thank you for being a part of that!
