Описание: When Holly finds her way as a lost child to Neverland, it is a paradise for a girl who loves adventure. But her life with the outlaws is plagued by a dark shadow: their sworn enemy, the mischievous Peter Pan, now captain of the pirate ship, the Jolly Roger. Holly finds the troublesome Pan strangely appealing, but he pays no attention to her - until one day she steals his name. In Knights captivating, The Name Thief of Neverland, there is a delicious irony that the thief, Holly, (carried to Neverland by a hard of hearing fairy) has also lost her own true name. In a place filled with pirates, outlaws, lost boys, headhunters and even an occasional dragon, its important to know who you are. Knight has recaptured the magic but has also introduced a feisty, determined heroine, who brings a new dimension to the old story. --Wendy Noble, author of the Beast-Speaker trilogy Pirates, treasure, bandits, and fairies Knight takes us into the magic of Neverland. This story has all the adventure a young reader could want, and yet a serious theme of loss and identity underlies the fun. The heroine, Holly, is as brave and boisterous as her rival, Peter Pan. Her story is told in the style of Barries original tale, with rollicking action and enchanting description, but Knight never falls into sentimentality. The book has an honesty that lifts it into archetype, that mix of truth and fantasy we find in all the best fairy tales. --Catch Tilley, author of Shadowalker Dimity Knight has worked as a Speech Pathologist and ESL teacher in Australia, Switzerland and the USA, and currently lives in Adelaide, South Australia.
