关于故事和说故事的人
詹姆斯·巴里（1860～1937）James M. Barrie詹姆斯·巴里，英国著名小说家、剧作家。他出生于苏格兰一个织布工人家庭，是家中九个孩子里最小的一个。
巴里早年就对戏剧和文学评论非常感兴趣。大学毕业后，曾从事新闻工作两年。1885年，他迁居伦敦，做新闻记者，并开始创作小说。《彼得·潘》是巴里最著名的一部童话剧。巴里每天上下班都看见一群孩子在肯辛顿公园的草地上玩耍，扮演仙女、海盗等童话中的各种角色。巴里被他们的游戏吸引，也加入到其中。这几个孩子就是《彼得·潘》中几个小主人公的原型。1904年，《彼得·潘》在伦敦公演，引起巨大轰动。后来，巴里把它改写成童话故事。这篇童话被译成多种文字，受到世界各地读者的喜爱。《彼得·潘》是巴里的代表作。主人公彼得·潘是个不愿长大的孩子，他和一群迷失的孩子一起住在梦幻岛上。有一天，彼得为了寻找自己丢失的影子偷偷溜进林达家，结识了温迪，想让她到梦幻岛做孩子们的妈妈，给他们讲睡前故事。就这样，温迪和她的两个弟弟学会了飞行，开始了梦幻岛的历险。那里有海盗，有印第安人，还有美丽的潟湖和神奇的梦幻鸟……
然而，所有的孩子都会长大，除了彼得·潘。而这个永不长大的孩子将一直快乐地历险。后来，温迪的女儿和她女儿的女儿也去了梦幻岛。从那以后，彼得·潘总是能找到一位妈妈，过去如此，以后也如此，只要还有孩子相信这个世界上有一个梦幻岛。

第1章在家里Chapter 1 At HomeAll children except one grow up.
They begin to know it after they are two.
And that was when Wendy Darling began to know it.
The Darlings lived in London at Number 14.
Wendy was the oldest.
Then came John and little Michael.
The children had a nurse.
Their nurse was a big dog named Nana.
Nana's doghouse was near the children's room.
When the children cried, she would always wake up.
Nana was a treasure.
Mrs. Darling didn't know what she would do without her.
The Darlings were a happy family.
That was until Peter Pan came.
One evening, Mrs. Darling tucked the children into bed.
Then she sat by the fire to sew.
Soon, she fell asleep.
She had very strange dreams.
She dreamed about Neverland.
Suddenly, the window blew open.
There was a boy dressed in a suit of leaves.
He dropped to the floor like a cat.
A strange, small light flew beside him.
She woke up suddenly and looked around her room.
She saw the boy from her dreams and screamed.
It was Peter Pan!
Down the hall, Nana heard the scream.
She ran into the room and tried to jump on Peter.
But he was too quick.
The dog could only catch his shadow.
Nana held Peter's shadow in her mouth.
Peter got away. He jumped out of the window.
Mrs. Darling screamed again.
She thought the boy had fallen out of the window.
She ran down to the street. He was not there.
She looked up into the sky.
He wasn't there either.
She only saw a flash of light.
It looked like a shooting star.
Mrs. Darling looked carefully at Nana's mouth.
"What's this?" she asked.
"It looks like the boy's shadow.
Well, he needs his shadow.
He'll come back for this.
I'll put it in my dresser drawer."
Mrs. Darling folded up Peter's shadow.
Then, she went to sleep.
A few nights later, Mr. and Mrs. Darling were getting ready for a party.
They dressed up in their best clothes.
They were in a hurry to get to the party.
They forgot to open the door of the children's room for Nana. She was left outside, and the children were asleep.
The smallest star in the sky yelled, "NOW! Go, Peter!"
A twinkling light flew into the children's room.
It was a tiny fairy called Tinker Bell.
Then the window blew open.
Peter Pan dropped to the floor.
"Tink," he whispered.
"Do you know where they put my shadow?"
"In the chest of drawers," she said.
Her voice sounded like small bells tinkling.
Peter jumped toward the drawers.
He dug through them.
There was his shadow!
Peter was annoyed with his shadow.
He tried to stick it on with a bar of soap.
That didn't work. Peter started to cry.
The sound of his crying woke Wendy up.
"Boy," she said, "why are you crying?
And what are you doing in my room?
And who are you? And..."
"I'm Peter Pan. I'm crying because my shadow won't stick."
Wendy took out her needle and thread.
She began to sew his shadow back on.
"You're so wonderful," said Peter.
"Thank you, Peter. I'd like to give you a kiss," said Wendy.
"So give it to me." He opened up his hand.
Wendy realized that Peter didn't know what a kiss was.
She didn't want to hurt his feelings.
So she gave him a thimble instead.
"I'd like to give you a kiss, too."
Peter gave her an acorn.
"Thank you, Peter. I'll put your kiss on a chain and wear it around my neck."
Wendy looked at him carefully.
"How old are you, Peter?"
"I don't know.
I ran away from home the day I was born."
"Really?" asked Wendy.
"Why did you do that?"
"I heard my father and mother talking.
They were talking about what I would be when I grew up.
But I don't want to grow up. So I ran away."
"Where do you live now, Peter?" asked Wendy.
"I live with the lost boys in Neverland.
The lost boys are children who fell out of their carriages.
Their mothers and fathers forgot about them.
I am their captain."
"How wonderful!
You must have lots of fun with them!"
"Yes, I do. But we're very lonely.
We don't have any mothers after all.
I wish I had a mother.
She could tell me bedtime stories."
"I know lots of stories," said Wendy.
Peter sat on the windowsill.
"Why don't you come with me then?
You can tell me all of your stories."
Peter took Wendy by the hand.
"Come, and fly away with me."
"Peter, I can't fly."
"I'll teach you. Come with me."
"Hmm. Wait a minute, Peter."
She ran to get her brothers.
"Wake up! Wake up! Peter Pan has come!
He's going to teach us how to fly!"
John and Michael woke up.
Peter then threw some fairy dust on them.
"Wiggle your shoulders," he said.

"Take the second left, and fly straight until morning.
That's the way to Neverland," said Peter.
Peter just said whatever came into his head.
Wendy, Michael, and John were flying in their nightclothes.
They followed Peter without question.
Finally, Peter stopped. "There it is," he said.
The children stood on their tiptoes to see.
Down below them was a beautiful, green island.
It seemed very familiar to them.
Beside them, a million golden arrows flew in the air.
The island grew darker and unfriendly.
"The pirates have spotted us," said Peter.
At that moment, the pirates fired their cannon into the sky.
The children all flew in different directions.
Wendy found herself alone with Tinker Bell.
Tinker Bell looked at Wendy with an angry look.
She was jealous of Wendy.
On the island, the lost boys were looking for Peter.
The pirates were looking for the lost boys.
And the Indians were looking for the pirates.
They were moving at the same speed and in the same direction.
So they just kept walking around the island.
The boys were dressed in animal skins.
They were Tootles, Nibs, Slightly, Curly, and the Twins.
They lived in a home underground.
Each boy had his very own hollow tree for a secret entrance.
This is how they hid from the pirates.
"Look!" cried Nibs. "There's Tinker Bell."
The boys looked into the sky.
They could see Tinker Bell and Wendy.
Wendy looked like a big, white bird in her nightgown.
"Hurry!" shouted Tinker Bell.
"Peter wants you to shoot this girl."
Tootles shot an arrow at Wendy.
It struck her in the chest.
She fell to the ground.
The boys gathered around Wendy.
"This is no bird," said Slightly. "It's a lady!"
Suddenly, they saw Peter flying toward them.
"Great news, boys," he cried as he dropped to the ground. "I've brought you a mother!"
The lost boys began to shake.
They were very afraid.
"I k-k-killed her," said Tootles.
"I shot her with an arrow."
Peter knelt beside Wendy.
"Look! She's not dead. The arrow struck her acorn. My kiss saved her life!"
"What are we going to do about this girl?" asked Peter. "I don't want to move her.
We may hurt her."
"I know what to do," said Nibs.
"Why don't we build a house around her?"
"That's a great idea!" said Peter.
As the lost boys began to build the house, Wendy woke up.
She wasn't hurt. She had only been sleeping.
Suddenly, she began to sing:
"I wish I had a pretty house, The littlest ever seen.
With funny little red walls
And a roof made of mossy green."
The lost boys were delighted.
They happily built their house to the rhythm of her song.
It really seemed like they had a mother at last.
Meanwhile, the pirates still crept through the night forest.
Captain James Hook, their leader, was the worst of them all.
Hook dressed in velvet and lace.
He wore his hair in long, black curls.
He seemed like a real gentleman.
Except there was an iron hook where his right hand should have been!
It was the hook that made him hate Peter.
The captain was talking to his man Smee.
"Peter Pan cut off my arm, and he fed it to a crocodile.
The croc thought that I was delicious! And it has followed me ever since."
"In a way, it's kind of a compliment.
You are a tasty person," said Smee. "Compliment!
What compliment?" cried the captain.
"Peter Pan is the reason why that croc follows me around!
That crocodile would have eaten me by now.
But it swallowed a clock. Now it ticks.
So when I hear the ticking crocodile, I run away."
"That clock will stop ticking someday."
"I know. That's what I'm afraid of.
And it's all Peter's fault!
I've waited long enough.
I want to shake his hand with this!"
The captain sliced the air with his deadly hook.
Suddenly, Hook jumped up.
"This mushroom is hot!"
The captain and his man looked carefully at the mushroom. They noticed smoke rising from it.
The two bad men pulled the mushroom from the ground.
The mushroom sat on top of a chimney.
Then they heard the sound of boys talking.
The pirates had found the chimney to the boys'underground home.
Wendy had put the boys to bed.
But they were too excited to sleep.
They were talking about what had happened that day.
The captain smiled.
"Let's go back to the ship," he said.
"We'll bake a big cake with thick green sugar on it!
Then we'll leave it there, and the boys will find it."
He giggled. "They have no mother. They won't know how dangerous it is to eat a rich cake.When they eat it up, they will die!"
TICK TICK TICK TICK
"The crocodile!" screamed Hook.
The captain ran off. Smee was close behind.KEY WORDS
