Saving Neverland

By Abi Elphinstone

Book Overview

This is an adventure story, complete with winterwolves and moonpaper maps, in which a young boy journeys through a frozen Neverland to break Captain Hook's curse. But it is also a story about what it means to be young and fearless and full of hope. All of us must grow up one day, but this is a book that champions the art of growing down . . . Milo is eleven, and desperate to grow up. That, he is sure, is when life will really begin. When he and his family move into a new house, and his younger sister Scruff discovers some mysterious gold dust in the attic, along with a bedroom window that seems impossible to close, it's the start of a strange and incredible adventure to a magical world. Milo's house used to belong to another family - the Darlings - who once visited this world themselves. Now Neverland needs Milo and Scruff to rescue it from a terrible curse - cast long ago by Captain Hook himself . . . Milo and Scruff are swept to Neverland and into the company of the Lost Girls, and as he fights to save this world - and his sister - Milo learns that what he has been so desperate for might have been inside him all along.
