Of course the Neverlands vary a good deal. John's, for instance, had a lagoon with flamingos flying over it.  Michael, who was very small, had a flamingo with lagoons flying over it. Wendy had a pet wolf forsaken by its parents, but on the whole the Neverlands have a family resemblance, and if they stood still in a row you could say of them that they have each other's nose, and so forth. On these magic shores children at play are for ever beaching their coracles [simple boat]. We too have been there; we can still hear the sound of the surf, though we shall land no more. What theme is developed in this passage? 
a)
Neverland 
b)
Adults lose their imaginations.
c)
Adults can still pretend.
d)
Growing up is good.
