Peter Pan (5) [Peter Pan]

After the front door closed, the little guardian night lights quitely went out, one after another...

A mysterious bright light suddenly appeared in the nursery, darting into all the drawers and cupboards, and even into a jug on the washstand.

When it stayed still for a moment, you could see it was not a light at all, but a fairy, Tinker Bell.

The next moment Peter himself dropped in at the window.
" Come out of that jug, Tink ! " he said.
" And show me where my shadow is ! "

Tinker Bell told him it was in the chest of drawers.
She spoke in a golden tinkle, like a chime of tiny bells.

Peter pulled out his shadow.

Then he shut the drawer, forgetting that Tinker Bell was still inside.

He sat down on the floor and tried to stick his shadow back on again.

He tried water, and then soap, but they did not work.

He was in despair, when Wendy woke up.

" What's the matter ? " she asked.

" My shadow won't stick on ! " complained Peter.

" Give it to me. I'll sew it on for you ! " said practical Wendy, fetching her work basket.

Peter was so excited to have this shadow back, he forgot to thank her.

He jumped up and down, crowing.
" What a clever boy I am ! "

Wendy was a kind little girl, so she was not offended.
She offered him a kiss.

Peter had never heard of a kiss, but thought it must be a present, so he held out his hand for it.

Wendy gave him her silver thimble instead, and ever after, he called a kiss a " Thimble " .
Which was very confusing !

In return, Peter gave Wendy an acorn button from his coat.

She put it on a chain round her neck.
Later on it was to save her life !
