Rated 4 out of 5 stars
In Tuck Everlasting, Winnifred Foster, or as others call her Winnie, was on her normal old boring stroll around her house. Her family was very stricked about her safety and wanted to watch her every move, they had her locked up even behind a very big gate. When finally one day she had it, so she ran away and disapeared into the forest. Running as if she never ran in her lifetime until she stumbled upon a boy drinking from a well near a tree. Her being so curious, trying to make friends with boy, didn’t turn out the way she wanted. The boy brought her to his families house, she got to know them better, finally they had the trust they needed and told her about each other. It was a young family Jesse Tuck, Mae Tuck, Angus Tuck, Miles Tuck, just an average family with a “secret” that could stop even time itself.
No don’t drink that water, it’s poisoned. It’s just water………… it’s not just water, I don’t even know if its even water. Are the only words that put Winnie into the biggest adventure of her life, a life of love, trust, protection, and secrets. Can Winnie keep this secret to herself, or will she accidently let it slip from her fingers. The world can never know about this…… if they did, then our world as we know it can never……… and we will call our selves gods if we……… let anyone find this or find us.
Tuck Everlasting by Natalie Babbitt, I would recommend this book to any person interested in a good fantasy book. I don’t think they made a movie on it, but I could be wrong. The story has some twists from here and there, but it gets very predictable int the beggining, then gets a very sad twist at the end, if you read the book you’ll find out what happens. It’s not much of a thick book, but it can get diffcult and confusing if you don’t take your time in reading it.
