"The letters said: NEVER LAND. Peter looked at it. And then he looked around him-at the lagoon; at the rock where the mermaids lounged; at the palm fringed beach; at the tinkling fairy flitting over his head; at his new friends the Mollusks; at the jungle-covered, pirate-infested mountains looming over it all."
"Then he looked at the board again, and he laughed out loud."
"'That's exactly where I am,' he said" (451).
Setting- The book starts off in London, where Peter and his friends are put aboard a ship called the Never Land. Shortly after, pirates attack their ship and they are shipwrecked on Mollusk Island. After many fights and adventures on Mollusk Island, Peter decides to stay on the island rather than go back to London.
