Lost in the Never Woods is by Aiden Thomas. A creepy fantasy retelling of "Peter Pan." Five years ago, Wendy Darling and her two brothers: John and Michael, went missing in the woods near their home. Only Wendy was found and she can't remember anything that happened. She keeps drawing a mysterious tree and the face of a boy she used to tell her brothers stories about: Peter Pan, the boy who never grows up and lives in Neverland. Then one night she discovers a boy lying the middle of a dark road and he tells her he is Peter Pan; he is real; and she must help him save the lost children, including her brothers. This fairy tale retelling is intense and creepy - so readers beware - this is no Disney version of "Peter Pan."
Ratings: 9th grade - 8 out of 10 - AC (mature thematic content).
