The Second Star to the Right (Peter Pan)

The second star to the right, is from the 1953 animated feature film Peter Pan. The star is not only one of the recognizable icons to the film, but has become one of disney's trademarks. It has been featured in many other disney films as well.

Peter Pan
In the movie, the star was the entrance to Neverland. A place where you can never grow up. It is the home of Peter Pan, the Lost Boys, Captain Hook and his crew, the Indians, Mermaids, and TInker Bell. Peter agrees to take Wendy Darling and her two younger brothers, Michael and John, with him to Neverland so Wendy does not have to grow up.

The Princess and the Frog
This may be a connection to Peter Pan but, could also just be a coincidence. Near the end of the movie when Ray, a firefly who helps Tianna and Prince Naveen in finding Mama Odie, dies his family, Tianna, Naveen, and Louis have a funeral for him. He is then set in a tree leaf and carried away by the river into the mist and disappears. But, when he is gone a light shines from the sky and everyoone looks up in disbelief. Ray (who was in love with the northern star, thinking she was a firefly, Evangeline) joins Evangeline and becomes a star right beside her. Coincedentally, the second star to the right.
