Several sea battles ensue, and eventually The Never Land is shipwrecked on an island where the battle for the trunk’s treasure continues between the Lost Boys, pirates, and the island’s natives. When pirates, led by the dreaded Pirate Black Stache (later known as Captain Hook), attack and attempt to steal the starstuff, Molly convinces Peter and the boys that they must protect it at any cost.
Peter soon learns that Molly is guarding a mysterious trunk that contains a magical substance called “starstuff” (the precursor to Peter’s fairy dust). On his voyage aboard a ship called The Never Land, Peter meets and befriends a girl named Molly. The book begins with Peter as a troublesome orphan in London, who is sent off with several of his friends to serve an evil king. Peter and the Starcatchers was also made into a successful Broadway play. This is the first book in a series of five, however, the first three stand alone as a trilogy. The story gives explanations for Peter’s eternal youth, the existence of Neverland, and Peter’s ability to fly. It is a fast-paced adventure story for kids, perfect for children who want to learn more about Peter and the Lost Boys. Dave Barry and Ridely Pearson’s Peter and the Starcatchers is a prequel to the original Peter Pan story.
