Summary: Bridge to Terebithia
Review: This is a good book about a young boy whose life changes forever when he meets a girl. Jess Aarons always wanted to be the fastest runner in the fifth grade, but never was able to because Leslie Burke was. Soon Leslie and Jess become friends and build their own world, Terebithia. They conquer evil spirits and even trick mean giant seventh graders. Then tragedy strikes and Jess has to learn how to continue without Leslie. This is a very emotional story, but also one that helps kids realize who they are.

Summary: Bridge to Terabithia
Review: I read this book and I find it to be boring. Just when it was getting good someone has to die. Personally, I don't like reading books like that, at all. I was required to read it as a school project and I think it was a waste of my time. It had all sorts of pointless text and events in it. Like when Jesse just decides to punch his little sister in the face, for no reason. And when he is milking the cow and he uses the utter like a gun and squirts his girlfriend in the ear with fresh milk. If I had time I would type more but I don't, and I'm lazy. I would rate this book half a star if I could. Unfortunately it's not an option. I would recommend this book for people who like reading books about nothing. Thank you and good night...

Summary: How Refreshing
Review: I just wanted to mention how refreshing it is to find a book that everyone agrees on. No one has given an unfavorable review of this book and I hope this review doesn't instigate one. This story is a must read for young adults today. It is so terribly touching that most librarians read it to a room full of teary-eyed children. If you are questioning whether to purchase this story, you need look no further than the stars it's received from its readers.

Summary: A Must for All Readers
Review: Paterson has outdone herself in this beautiful work of literature about the deep-rooted friendship between a young boy and girl. It is truly a joy to read again and again as their magical relationship flowers from a curious attraction to a bond that creates a forcefield of love for them both in the shape of a secret hideout in the woods, the make-believe kingdom of Terabithia. This bond is not unreceptive to outsiders though, for through Jess' (the boy) friendship with the young girl, Leslie, he is able to recognize and express his feelings for others in his life, a favorite teacher and his own little sister. This work is extraordinary, because it gives an in-depth look at the range of emotions that are often misunderstood in our childhood, i.e. love, grief, etc. The ending is tragically moving; yet, the experience for Jess, Leslie, and the readers, is truly magical.

His sisters seem to get away with everything, especially the older two, while his mother is constantly nagging him. Then he meets a new friend who opens his eyes to the world of imagination.

Summary: Leaves you feeling Jesses distress
Review: Katherine Paterson creates emotion which grabs the readers attention from the first page until the very last page. She takes the reader through childhood envy and laughter, from sadness and denial to acceptance. It is difficult not to feel like you, yourself are standing next to each character experiencing everything with them. I never had a book that takes me through so many emotions and to have them feel so real. The detail Ms. Paterson uses is just phenomenal! Any reader of any age would enjoy this book of childhood and friendship.

Review: Keep the tissues handy, you're going to need them. When Jess finally finds the best friend of his entire life, Leslie Burke, tragedy strikes. This emotional novel engulfs the reader and leaves the soul with a haunting feeling for months, if not, years to come. You will certainly treasure close friendships as never before.

Summary: Terabithia
Review: Bridge to Terabithia is about a young boy named Jess and a new student named Leslie. They made an imaginary land named Terabithia. Terabithia is a place where they can go and be away from the normal world. The only way that they could get over to Terabithia, was to swing across an old rope that is suspended across a small stream. Jess and Leslie would cross the bridge every day and made a visit to their make-believe world. One day there was a huge storm. Jess and Leslie tried to cross the old rope. This one day would change their lives forever. This book was okay. It was just not detailed enough. I would recommend this book to anyone that likes carried out stories. This book wasn't one of the best books that I've read, but it was pretty interesting.
