Sisters of the Neversea

Reach for this book when your child is grappling with the complexities of a blended family or searching for a version of a classic story that finally includes their own culture and perspective. Lily and Wendy are stepsisters whose family is on the brink of a major change. When Peter Pan arrives to whisk them away to Neverland, they must navigate a world of magic and danger while rediscovering the strength of their bond. This reimagining addresses themes of belonging and identity through a Muscogee Creek lens, providing a more inclusive and respectful take on the Peter Pan mythos. Parents will appreciate how the story handles the tension of a changing home life with empathy and nuance. It is perfectly suited for middle grade readers (ages 8-12) who enjoy high stakes adventure but are also ready to think critically about how traditional stories can be retold to honor everyone. It is a powerful tool for discussing how we can define our own paths, regardless of the stories others have written for us.
