Summary: Water Under the Bridge.
Review: Whae we first started reading this book,I thought it was going to be a little kid's book and not a good story. The story is about a boy named Jesse who gets up every morning and runs. One morning he met a girl named Leslie, he and she became best friends .On a rainy Sunday morning his music teacher came and picked him up and they went to the museum, he forgot to tell Leslie where he was going and that he would not be able to meet her. When he comes home, his parents tell him that she is dead and that she died trying to get over the water to get to Terribethia My favorite part is the praying ceromonies they have and how they dress in flowers. I liked the ending because it ended right if she would't have died then it would not have been such a sad story. I liked this story and I think you should read it.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Very Real, Emotional kind of book
Review: When I first read the book I thought that it was just an ordinary school book that the teachers read to you. But it was different because I could easily picture what the author was putting together. You could just visualize what was going on. The story was about a boy and a girl who made of this club. They pretended like it was a castle and they were king and queen of it. they build a little bridge to put over this river so they could get to the other side. They started to like each other and the boy also had a crush on his teacher. His teacher asked him to go to an Art Gallery Museum with her. Then when he goes, a real tragedy happens... But thats up to you to find out if you read the book. My favoriye part was when the tragedy happens. You'd never know that something like that would ever happen to kids so young. The end is very sad. It might even bring taers to your eyes.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: A fair book
Review: I found this book to be boring. It did not have much action in it. The story is Jesse Arrons meets a girl named Leslie that has just recently moved close to him. They have small adventures to different places. The part I liked best was when Leslie meets one of her best friends.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The Bridge To Terabithia
Review: "The Bridge to Terabithia," was an intriguing adventure through their fantasy world, that two friends had built. Jess Aarons, had met the new girl in town, Leslie Burk, one day. Leslie had come from a totally different world than Jess', and at first, that caused many problems. They had managed somehow to work out all of their differences and upon that, build a great friendship. Then one morning, while going to their fantasy world "Terabithia", Jess had gotten a weird feeling about it. "Leslie, I don't think we should be going there today, I duno, I just have a weird...I am just..ah_, kinda scared to..." What had happened there, that morning, would change the other one forever. I'd recommend this book to you if you like books that are about, and built on friendships.

Rating: 4 stars

Summary: SAD BUT BEAUTIFUL
Review: This story is one of the most beautiful works I've ever read! I first read it when I was ten, now I'm sixteen and still love it. Parts are so happy you can't stop grinning, but sometimes you want to cry. The ending is something you won't expecT!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A tear jerker
Review: As a prize for something I cannot remember in fifth grade, I got to choose a book out of a box. Right there on top was Bridge to Terabithia. I chose it, seeing nothing better in the box. I took it home and began reading it on the bus. I nearly missed my stop!

Jesse and Leslie form a fast friendship, proving that opposites attract. When disaster strikes, Jesse must learn to grow up in a day, becoming an adult and facing reality the hard way.

Four years later, I still flip open to the last few pages and have a good cry. Keeping the youthful spirit and beautiful words rolling, Katherine Paterson maintains that strange grasp on both children and adults. She really outdid herself with this book!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Absolute Favorite Book as a Child
Review: I love this book. It was the first book that made me cry as a child. I read the book upon recommendation from a teacher who knew I loved to read. I started reading with dread, because this particular teacher always seemed to recommend the worst books, but this was wonderful. I love it! I love it! I love it! Good for somewhat older children (4,5,6th grade), though, because it deals with some sensitive issues.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A Classic
Review: I will never forget my 5th grade teacher reading this book to my class. Every day at the end of language arts the entire class would quite with anticipation as Ms. Kresky began a new chapter. I am now a 31 year old man, and from time to time, on a wet and raining day, my mind will drift back to the world that Jess and Leslie created....
