Peter Pan's eternal youth is a key theme in his story, which has been portrayed in countless films and translations. The novel follows Campbell's hero's journey, with Peter and Wendy embarking on an adventure to Neverland. Despite initial hesitation, Wendy joins Peter and they face numerous challenges together. They eventually return home, but Peter's visit years later shows that he retains only fragments of his memories. His archetypal quality of unending youth exemplifies the eternal life of a child. This quality gives him the famous image he has on the world, being proven by the many multiple films, movies and franchises there has been. The novel has been translated into many languages, some of which being Dutch, German, Spanish and Chinese. Campbell's paradigm for a hero's journey underlines the moral of adventure of maturity. Peter starts as an ordinary child like Wendy. He meets her and the call of adventure continues with them going to Neverland together. Wendy refuses at first, but in the end goes. The children enter Neverland and there is no turning back now, and while there are, the Tess allies and enemies are shown with the multiple fights and adventures they encounter. They go back home with the parents ecstatic and in the end, they all grow up individually, but Wendy's daughter starts a cycle and Peter comes back for a visit with little memory left.
