Rating: Summary: The Tuck's Story Review Review: This is not considered a great book in my opinion. It would be better if there was more action and not just description. I didn't like this book very much the first time I read it, but it is easier to understand as you get older. Would YOU want to live forever?

Rating: Summary: Tucks Forever! Review: Tuck Everlasting is an excellent book about life and fantasy. It is fiction, but the events relate to real events. Tuck Everlasting is a book about a 10-yr.old girl named Winnie who discovers new secrets about her wood and a strange family that has their own secrets. This book has a spectacular ending. The epilogue states that the tree with the magical spring was bulldozed over and dicintegrated. People ask "How can that be possible if the tree never dies because of the spring that's surrounding it?". She says "Mail me a letter and I'll give you a full explanation". But that question may never be answered.
