Neverland is calling again...
Something is wrong in Neverland. Dreams are leaking out-strangely real dreams, of pirates and mermaids, of warpaint and crocodiles. For Wendy and the Lost Boys it is a clear signal-Peter Pan needs their help, and so it is time to do the unthinkable and fly to Neverland again. But back in Neverland, everything has changed-and the dangers they find there are far beyond their dreams. . .

"It's about adventure and bravery and cowardice and aching poignancy - and in this book McCaughrean has captured the lot." - THE DAILY EXPRESS
"The official sequel to Peter Pan needs to be an exceptional book, and that's exactly what we have in Peter Pan in Scarlet... What McCaughrean has done is nothing short of miraculous. It's enough to make you believe in fairies." - PHILIP ARDAGH, THE GUARDIAN
"a spectacularly impressive work" - THE RADIO TIMES
"it's hard to see how she could have done it better." - THE INDEPENDENT ON SUNDAY
"By some mysterious process of osmosis, she has brilliantly mixed Barrie's preoccupations with her own, aping his engaging style but also adding to it; the result is a little masterpiece." - CRAIG BROWN, THE MAIL ON SUNDAY
