All that night Peter
Pan walked up and down in front of Wendy's house, to watch over her
and keep her from danger while she slept.
All these children lived in an underground cave, and the next day,
when Wendy got well, they all went down into the cave and Wendy agreed
to be their mother and Peter their father. They had many good times
together. They also had some exciting adventures with the red-skins
and with a pirate named Captain Hook and his crew. After a time the
redskins became their friends, and Peter rescued his family from the
pirates' ship.
One day Wendy and her brothers realized that they had been away so
long that perhaps their mother had forgotten them and shut the window
of the nursery so that they could not get back. They decided to hurry
home. When they reached home Peter Pan was before them, and he closed
the window so that they could not get back. But when he heard the
children's mother singing such a sad song inside, his heart was made
tender and he opened the window and the children crept back safely
into their mother's arms. Wendy's mother invited Peter Pan to stay
and be her child, but Peter was so afraid that he would have to go
to school and grow up and be a man that he went back to his home in
fairy-land.
