James Matthew Barrie (1860–1937) was a Scottish novelist and playwright who wrote for both adults and children.
He is best remembered as the creator of the character Peter Pan, who first appeared in the novel The Little Bird in 1902.
The character became popular in 1904, when Barrie wrote the hugely successful play Peter Pan; Or the Boy Who Never Grew Up. He later turned it into a novel called Peter and Wendy.

In the century since its debut in London, Peter Pan has come to be regarded as the most classic piece of children's literature of all time.
It is the story of the three Darling children's encounter with an ageless boy who teaches them to fly and takes them to the magical island of Neverland inhabited by fairies, lost boys, Red Indians, mermaids, a hungry crocodileanda band of pirates led by the villainous Captain Hook.
It is an endearing story of wonder, magic and all the enchantments of childhood that manifest themselves in the world of a boy who refuses to grow up.
