Tuck Everlasting is an all time classic. I remember reading this when I was only 13 and I fell in love with it. 8 years later, I pick it up, and it is still one of my favorites. Natalie Babbitt has a way with words saying so little but meaning and picturing so much. The simple story of a young girl and a "never-ending" life decision has you wondering even after the story ends. It's a satisfying read and teaches a heart-warming secret that is unforgettable.

I liked it and didn't like the book, all at the same time. I like that the book made me think... In the beginning, middle, and end.

I didn't like the jail part. It seemed to me that the author needed a problem and manufactured that one. After all, what could anyone do to people who can't be physically harmed.

Currently I am wondering how I feel about Winnie pouring spring water on the toad. I'll think on that for a while.

I'd like to add that Winnie's crush on Jesse was endearing and it's a very romantic notion for a young girl to imagine that a boy might want to be married to her literally forever.

The author did a great job of making me fall in love with the Tuck family.
