What is the difference between the novels Peter Pan and Peter and Wendy?

Peter Pan was originally a play, so the biggest difference between that and Peter and Wendy is that the former is a play and the latter is a novel. :) The novel was published 7 years after the play, so there are some revisions to the story, things added, some left out, and some just told differently.The novel P&W was later published under the titles Peter Pan and Wendy and just plain Peter Pan. These are the same novel as P&W.

Primarily the setting. Cyrano is set in seventeenth century France, but Roxanne is in twentieth century USA. The dialogue in Rostand's play is in verse but the dialogue in the movie certainly is not. The setting difference results in a host of smaller changes to the plot, which change the story considerably.
