'A wonderful whirlwind of magic and adventure and every bit as enchanting as the original
Peter Pan. I absolutely loved it!' Catherine DoyleNumber 14 Darlington Road looks like a
perfectly ordinary townhouse - at first glance anyway but magic is good at hiding . . . when
it's waiting for the right person to discover it . . . Martha Pennydrop is ten and desperate
to grow up. But growing up is a tricky business. It means turning your back on imagination fun
and magic because those were the things that led to the Terrible Day when something awful
nearly happened to Martha's younger brother Scruff which would have been All Her Fault. But
when Martha and Scruff discover a drawer full of mysterious gold dust in the bedroom of their
new house - along with a window that's seemingly impossible to close - it's the start of an
incredible adventure to a magical world: Neverland! The Pennydrop's new house used to belong to
another family - the Darlings - who once visited this world themselves. Now Peter Pan is back
and in need of their help. Neverland is in the icy grip of a terrible curse - cast long ago by
Captain Hook. And only Martha and Scruff can save it . . . A reluctant Martha and excited
Scruff are swept off to Neverland and into the company of the Lost Kids. But when Scruff is
kidnapped Martha must rediscover all the imagination magic and belief she has buried deep
inside herself for so long to save him - and Neverland itself. Praise for Saving Neverland
'Abi Elphinstone's imagination is as colourful and enticing as a sweetshop. In reimagining
Peter Pan she blows fairy dust over the classic tale and makes it fly . . . the perfect
bedtime story for children of all ages.' M.G. Leonard 'Saving Neverland soars with Joy' Piers
Torday 'An awfully big new adventure in Neverland that's icy dicey delightful and dazzling in
equal measure!' Peter Bunzl 'Full of wit wonder and high-stakes action with the most
brilliant cast of characters . . . a true classic and Abi Elphinstone's best book yet!' Emma
Carroll 'Daring joyful funny' Maz Evans
