I need people to know how similar Pedro Bala and Peter Pan are, and how much Capitães da Areia resembles the story of Peter Pan, but Capitães da Areia takes place in a cruel reality, without fairies or magic, just the hunger and inevitable violence of 1930s Bahian society.
Captains of the Sands is a brazilian book by the author Jorge Amado, published in 1937, exploring themes such as abandonment, social inequality, and the struggle for survival through petty theft and scams, living in an abandoned warehouse.
I have a lot of Peter Pan books (or books that give me the vibes), here's a list:
Peter Pan — J.M Barrie
Peter Pan in Scarlet — Geraldine McCaughrean
Tiger Lily — Jodi Lynn Anderson
The Little White Bird — J.M Barrie
Captains of the Sands — Jorge Amado
Lord of the Flies — William Golding
