One night a boy named Peter Pan and the Tinker Bell fairy flew in to visit the children Wendy, John, and Michael.

Peter had run away from home, living on an island with the lost boys. Wendy and her brothers flew there to be their mother.

The boys built a home, the girl cared for them and told stories.

The boys were pursued by pirates led by Captain Hook. Once Peter cut off his arm, which was swallowed by a crocodile. The beast had been after the pirate ever since.

The villains made intrigues and tried to kidnap Wendy, but Peter saved her.

Wendy and her brothers got homesick and called the boys over. Peter refused and was left alone, and the boys were captured by pirates.
Pan rushed to the rescue. During the fight with Hook, he fell overboard right into the jaws of the crocodile.

The children returned home and the parents were happy and adopted all the boys.

Peter promised to visit Wendy. But when he showed up, she already had a daughter, Jane. First the girl flew away with Pan, and then her daughter.

It wouldn’t stop as long as the children were cheerful and heartless.
