These audio editions, especially dramatised for BBC Radio, are of timeless stories that have enchanted generations of readers both young and old. The wonder and excitement of these much-loved tales live on in these acclaimed full-cast dramatisations, complete with evocative music and sound effects.
Wendy, John and Michael Darling spend an unhappy night in the nursery without Nana, their dog, when suddenly through the window flies Peter Pan to claim his shadow.
He teaches the children how to fly and then whisks them off to Neverland, a magical place with mermaids, Red Indians and pirates. Chief among them is the cunning Captain Hook, who is intent upon killing Peter Pan.
Wendy settles in to look after the Lost Boys, but soon misses her own parents and decides to return home, inviting the Lost Boys with her. But as they leave they are captured by the pirates. Only Peter and Tinkerbell can save them.
Also starring Roy Hudd as Smee and June Whitfield as Mrs Darling, this sparkling production is directed by award-winning producer Dirk Maggs, with an original music score and stunning sound effects.
