Peter Pan and The Children fly

PETER PAN

Peter looks at the floor and sees his shadow. He is very happy and dances around the room. Peter looks around the room for his fairy. He hears a noise and looks in a drawer. Tinker Bell flies out. Wendy is delighted to see a fairy, but Tiker Bell is afraid. She hides behind the big clock. 

Where do you live, Peter? asks Wendy. I live in Neverland with the Lost Boys. The Lost Boys haven't got a mother or father. They are alone in the world and they live in Neverland. 

We can go there with him. But first we must learn to fly, Wendy says.

Wendy, John and Michael are very excited. They try to fly but fall on the beds and on the floor.

J. M. Barrie likes children very much. He wants children to be well and happy.

In London there is a  hospital for sick children called Great Ormond Street Hospital for Children.Barrie often visits this hospital because he wants to help the children.

Barrie is a very generous man. In 1929 he makes an important decision: all the money from book sales, films and theatre shows of Peter Pan goes to the hospital. This also continues after Barrie's death. This money helps the children, the hospital, the doctors and the nurses. 

Peter Pan is performed once a year at the hospital. This is a very happy event for the children.
