The Darling family was a very happy family. Sometimes Mr. And Mrs. Darling and their children all danced around the sitting room together. What a lovely time they had! But then, Peter Pan arrived!
One morning Mrs. Darling found some leaves on the bedroom floor. She was surprised because it was a strange place to find leaves. When Wendy saw them, she smiled and said, “Oh! It’s Peter again!
