How old is Peter Pan and Wendy?
Asked by Wiki User
The canon age is unknown, as in, the play/book by Mr. Barrie never specifically confirms what age he is. It is also a very complex matter.
- Mentally he is about 5-years old, in the original story. (His mental age varies between the story versions.)
- Physically he appears aprox. 7 years old, in the original story. (His physical age varies between the story versions.)
- Generally speaking he is many decades/centuries old. (Hinted in the original book.)
In the original novel Peter acts, thinks and speaks like a 5-year old would, and he is described to still have all his baby teeth in his mouth. But, he is likely older than that as he is able to have sword fights with grown-up pirates, and Wendy with whom he is said to be the same age is the oldest of the Darling childen whilst Michael is the youngest and Michael seems to be around the 5 years of age, and then there's John as the middle child. So in the original story Wendy and Peter must be physically about 7 years old. Not much older because in the end, the grown-up Wendy attempts to lift Peter in her arms which speaks of a small child and thus likely 7 years of age, tops.
There is also the fact that Mr. Barrie himself was one of the disigners for the Peter Pan statue that is now in Kengsinton Gardens, London - and Barrie originally had photos of the 6-years old Peter Llewelyn-Davis, (a family friend), for the design matters.
Still, The Walt Disney Company in most of their adaptations based on the novel, has visioned Peter and Wendy to be 10 to 12 years olds or even older. The 2003 live-action movie had them be 12, for even though it is very novel-faithful, it does borrow some aspects from Disney too. So that's really just Disney-(based) idea and not necessarely Mr. Barrie's intent. Author analysis and studies have come to conclusion that Mr. Barrie is Peter Pan, as in that he based Peter's character and story essentially on his own childhood and mother issues whcih he ultimately began to have at the age of 6 when his older brother died.
The book Peter Pan tells us that the legend of Peter Pan already existed when Wendy's mother was a little girl, so practically Peter may have been many decades or even centuries old at the time of the original story. But speaking of physical age, in general officiality Peter Pan is something between 7 to 12 years old, in rare occations even 15-years old. Mentally, in the original story he is obviously about 5-years old.

Where can you get a Peter Pan script for free?
Asked by Wiki User
The script of Peter Pan, or the Boy Who Wouldn't Grow Up(the original play) was not actually published until 1928. This means that it is still under copyright in the United States, and must be purchased in book form. In the European Union, it is in the public domain, so you can legally download it. However, special legislation in the UK gives Great Ormond Street Hospital (who were given the rights by J. M. Barrie) the right to charge royalties for it within the UK.
By the way, the novel form of the story, called Peter and Wendy, was published in 1911, and is in the public domain in most of the world.

What is the significance of Peter Pan?
Asked by Wiki User
I think that there are many 'hidden meanings' to J.M. Barrie's book. The author really incorporated some of his childhood memories and feelings into this book. His life is very interesting; definatley worth some research. The movie "Finding Neverland" is a pretty accurate bio of J.M. Barrie. In short, I think that Barrie wrote "Peter Pan" to help purge himself of the bad memories that were still clinging to him. I feel that Barrie also wrote this book to assure that children would always have a place in which they could hide. "There is no frigate like a book"---Emily Dickinson

What are the relevance of the novel Peter Pan?
Asked by Wiki User
The story of Peter Pan - to me - helps remind us to enjoy our childhood. Help our children remain children while they can. And most importantly - to enjoy and appreciate our time while we can. If you cannot have fun, find a job you enjoy, making sure you have great friends with you along the way of course, it is just one big empty time. Go out, have fun, keep friends close and appreciate the joy.

How do people become fairies like tinker bell?
Asked by Wiki User
Fairies like "Tinker Bell" are part of "fairy stories". Fairy Stories are fictional creations and the characters are not real.
Therefore I am sorry to say that "Fairies" are not real, they are imaginary beings and it is impossible for a real person to become one.
