The first-ever authorized sequel to
J. M. Barrie’s Peter Pan!
In August 2004 the Special Trustees of

to create a sequel to J. M. Barrie’s timeless masterpiece.
Renowned and multi award-winning English author Geraldine
McCaughrean won the honor to write this official sequel, Peter
Pan in Scarlet. Illustrated by Scott M. Fischer and set
in the 1930s, Peter Pan in Scarlet takes readers flying
back to Neverland in an adventure filled with tension, danger,
and swashbuckling derring-do!
