Summary: Bridge to Terabithia
Review: This book was a very intensifying book. It keeps you wondering what will happen next. The character's feelings in this book really makes you believe it's true. This book was full of emotions. I liked how the author was descriptive and everything just fitted into place. Bridge to Terabithia is a great book... I really believe that anyone who likes a dramatic book should get this. If you have a sense of lonliness this book is something to guide you. You should read this because it's one of the best books I have read so far.

Summary: One of my favorites!
Review: Bridge to Terebithia was a great book and a life-learning lesson. Katherine Peterson shows that life isn't perfect, even in books, and the good guys can't always win. The main characters were fun to listen to and kind of showed you a way in life.

Summary: A magical world in a realistic setting
Review: I first read this book five years ago. I have never read it since. This is not because I do not like this book - I love it - but because some books - like this one - leave a certain impression on me that I don't want to go away. When I reread books, I always have a new impression from them. Sometimes that's good but sometimes first impressions are best. Although I don't have much in common with Jess, I identify a lot with Leslie. My family does own a tv but I rarely watch it - I don't really see the point. I read fantasy all the time and dream of being queen of my own magicall realm so far from earth that no one has even heared of it before. The magic of this book touched me greatly. It is a fantasy book in a realistic setting - something that I would never be able to accomplish. The ending of this book is very sad - but that adds to it as well. There is much more that I would like to say about this wonderfull book but I cannot put it into words. I was astonished to find out about a month ago that this book is a censored book. I don't know why that is, but I can assure you that if you are considering not reading this book for that reason, please go ahead and read it. There is nothing objectionable.

Summary: What a book!!
Review: I enjoy this book when I was grade school. It begins back memories. I love the relationship of the two main characters. It was the perfect boy/girl relationship. I was saded by the ending, I wish it had a happier ending. My favorite was when the girl was milking the cow on her father's farm and and her guy friend came over and they have play milk fight. And the girl sprays milk on the boy and then the boy tell her close her eyes and then he sprays milk in her mouth. I thought it was a really funny part of the book. I think this book would be perfect gift for a middle school child. I know they will have a fun time reading this book

Summary: Amy's Review
Review: This book was about a young girl and boy who meet and become best friends, and eventually fall in love with each other. I read a book that was similar to this one and I loved it to, it was the same scenario, but they had known each other all their lives and didn't really have an intimate relationship, I mean like boyfriend and girlfriend, they were just really good friends. I myself really liked it and I would have to say it's my favorite book ever. I was suprised because most books don't interest me to the point that I can't put it down and that I was excited to get a chance to read more of it. The end was very shocking and sad, I cried. I think this book is only for the people tha t like sad books like me, and its sort of a love story,. so if you like that kind od thing this book is for you, I highly recommend it to anyone, and I hope you like it as much as I did.

Summary: Bridge To Terabithia
Review: In my opinion this is an enjoyable book and hopefully it will be remebered as classic. I've read this book a million times and everytime I've read it, it seem's to get better. I thought it really was amazing how Katherine Paterson(author)came up with all those idea's about an imaginary place that came to life in this book. Another reason I like this book is because the idea of having a secret city. Many people and children dream about having their own secret city to go to,it's a fun way to see what would happen if your city came to life. I would recomend this book to every age,with a big imagination.

Summary: I Loved this book
Review: I haven't read this book in a long time, however, I still remember it to this day. I read it when I was like 12 or so, and I still remembered it. I read it three times then, and I recommend it to anyone, especially if parents want their child to read something that teaches values of imagination, friendship and that you can be different and like someone different and it is ok. I recommend it highly and for those that have read it, I'm sure they know what I mean by everything I said.

Summary: A childhood favorite worth reading as an adult
Review: Most of the books that I read during childhood haven't held up when I go back to them as adults--but this one does. I remember empathizing with the female protagonist of this story--I was a tomboy, I had male friends, and I had a fantastic imaginative life. This book takes us into the heads and hearts of a boy and girl who dare to become friends at the age when that is sure to cause ridicule, and it takes us into the fantasy world that they create together. Because you become so involved with them and their world, it is all too tragic when reality intrudes at the end of the book. A great book by itself, but possibly also a great tool to teach children about death--particularly the untimely death of friends.

Summary: A Masterpiece
Review: I didn't have the privilege of reading this book when I was younger. I regret that. However, a generous bookstore owner recommended the title to me while I was attending college. I'm so glad she did. I guess I'm just an old softie at heart, but I cry every time I read this story. Katherine Paterson is a brilliant writer. In some ways this book is even more meaningful to me as an adult, because I've now experienced the pain death brings when you lose someone you love. I couldn't have said that in my youth. It's shameful that so many institutions have attempted to ban this book in the past. I'm always left wondering why. This story offers the reader so much to contemplate. It deals with issues that are concrete. It touches on real feelings. This book is a must-have for families that encourage children to ask questions and deal with ideas that are at once painful but an essential part of growing up.

Summary: Bridge to Terabithia
Review: Bridge to Terabithia is a mix of love and hate, life and death, and everything in between. I think it is a story of love and hate because it is fiction. Yet, they make it like it's a real life adventure of two friends wanting to be together forever and a day! It all started one summer when Jesse Aarons was practicing for the big races at schools between some of the grades. When he passed the old Perkins place, he noticed someone was moving in,suddenly, a girl(or atleast he thought it was one,he couldn't tell),but after he met her he knew. He also knew he liked her VERY VERY much! That was the day the day that Jesse Aarons and Leslie Burke became inseparable. The reason I think it is a story of life and death is that so many people get hurt. Take Janice Avery for example, she was the mean seventh grade of the bus. So, Jess and Leslie played a prank on her, but they regret it after they heard her crying in the bathroom. Leslie went in tto talk to her and got told that her father beat her and she had gotten a good one this morning. Lelise told Jess "Now I have a friend and a half!". The next day ti started to rain, and rain, and rain. Well, Jess' favorite teacher, Miss Edmunds, asks him to go to the Smithsonian with him since it was raining, and he said yes and walked out with out even notifying his parents where he was going. Jess came home to a room of very quiet children, and a crying mother and father. They tried to tell him that something had happened to Leslie, But he wouldn't believe it. Check out this book to find out what happens because I'm not about to spoil it. Sara Altman
