Reading it at your level: A2B1
J. M. Barrie tells the story with a warm, storytelling voice that speaks directly to the reader, using phrases like 'I dare say' and 'you see'. Wendy, John, and Michael fly with Peter to Neverland, where they face Captain Hook and his pirates. The vocabulary is richer than a simple fable, but the narrator's friendly tone makes even tricky sentences feel approachable.
