Peter and the Starcatchers by Dave Barry and Ridley Pearson

4 STARS

Starcatchers - Book 1

If I was still an 11 year old girl, this series of books would become definite Must Reads! A prequel to the Peter Pan story of J.M. Barrie's that we all know, the authors have done a wonderful job of setting up all the classic characters, plot devices, and backstory. How DID Peter become Peter Pan? It's all here. Peter, the lost boys, Captain Hook and Smee, the mermaids, the Indians, the Croc, and TINKERBELL! And new characters as well. It's a riotous rumble of a read. I would highly recommend this book to all young people, boy or girl and to adults, like me, who are intrigued by the idea of knowing how Peter came to be Pan.
