What are the relevance of the novel Peter Pan?

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?

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.

Peter, John, Michael are the only common boys names in Peter Pan since Mr. Darling is never called by his real name, and the lost boys all have unusual names like Nibs.

No one knows. The character was invented in 1904.

Some later Peter Pan stories suggest that he is very old, having attended Eton in 1894. This would tie in with the theme of timelessness in NeverLand.

How was nibs in Peter Pan?

In the movies he's quite the second leader when Peter isn't around. He has light/brownish hair and is slender. He has gotten a bit of Peter's arrogance.

Why did Peter Pan remain in Neverland?

If you mean the Lost boys, they falled out of their prams when the nurses wasn't looking. If they're not found within 7 days, they get to Neverland.

Or if they're lost by their nannies in places such as Kensington Gardens, Peter (who often goes out from Neverland) finds them.

There aren't many girls in Neverland, because girls are too clever to get lost, (that's actually said by Peter himself.)

from Neverpedia:

  • Alexander Ogilvy Barrie (Mar 1842) was Jamie's eldest brother. He taught at the Glasgow Academy, and when Jamie went there at the age of 8, Alexander looked after his brother. He later taught at Dumfries Academy, where Jamie went when he was 13. At the time of the 1891 census, he was H. M. Inspector of Schools at Green Bank in Dumfries. He married Mary Cowan of Edinburgh in 1877 and they had six children: Lillian Knight, Ethel Margaret, Charles David Ogilvy, William Cowan Ogilvy, Eliza Dorothy, and Mary Cowan (all Barrie).
  • Mary Edward Barrie (Jan 1845 - 1918). She also taught at Glasgow and Dumfries and looked after Jamie. In 1879 she married John Galloway and they had two children: John Jr and Alexander O(gilvy?) Galloway.

While away at school in Bothwell, Lanark, Scotland, he fell while ice skating, and fractured his skull, on the day before his 14th birthday, when Jamie was 6. His death devastated Margaret, but she took comfort in the fact that he would always remain young in her memory.
  • Sarah Mitchell Barrie (Jun 3, 1855 - Nov 1, 1903). She was one of the witnesses at Jamie's wedding, but did not herself get married. She was a teacher. Later in life she kept house for her uncle Rev. David Ogilvy, who was joined by her father after her mother died.

  • Margaret (Maggie) Barrie (July 9, 1863 - 1936). She lived with him in London at the time of the 1891 census. There she married fellow Scot William Henderson Winter in 1893, and moved to Hampshire, where they had a son, also named William, in 1897. Her husband was one of the witnesses at Jamie's wedding.

Is peter pan a Disney movie?

Peter Pan was a character in the 1902 J.M Barrie novel The Little White Bird. Later the play Peter Pan or the Boy Who Wouldn't Grow up was adapted for the stage (1904).

Disney further adapted the story into an animated movie released in 1954.

James Hart and Nick Castle furthe adapted the story for the 1991 movie Hook, directed by Steven Speilberg and staring Robin Williams, Dustin Hoffman, Julia Roberts, and Bob Hoskins.

In 2003 Universal Studios in cooperations with Columbia pictures released another full length movie based on the original Barrie story.

So, while not originally or exclusively a Disney property, Disney has worked with the story and their 1954 production is part of the Disney universe.
