Description: Whimsical and fantastic works of British writer Sir James Matthew Barrie include the play Peter Pan (1904). People best remembered today Scottish author and dramatist James Matthew Barrie, who in order of merit created Peter Pan.
In London, he met Llewelyn Davies, who inspired him about magical adventures of a baby boy in gardens of Kensington, included in The Little White Bird, then to a "fairy play" about this ageless adventures of an ordinary girl, named Wendy, in the setting of Neverland. People credited this best-known play with popularizing Wendy, the previously very unpopular name, and quickly overshadowed his previous, and he continued successfully. Following the deaths of parents, Barrie unofficially adopted the boys. He gave the rights to great Ormond street hospital, which continues to benefit.
