Tuck Everlasting

            Tuck Everlasting is a very well written book by Natalie Babbitt. It's perfect for a bookclub, a summer read, or a rainy Sunday morning. This story takes place in 1881, in the little town of Treegap. 

            The main characters in this book are first, Winnie Foster. She is eleven years old and just waiting for some adventure. The second main characters are the Tuck family. Mae Tuck, her husband Tuck, and their sons, Miles and Jessi. 

             Early one morning, Winnie decides to venture into the woods for the first time.There she sees Jessi taking a drink from a bubbling spring. Then she meets the Tucks. Because of that spring, the Tucks can never die or grow old. Now Winnie must choose whether or not to keep their secret or join them. Meanwhile, the "Man in the Yellow Suit"  has uncovered the Tuck's secret and is planning on exposing it to the world!

            I really enjoyed this book, it is a little slow in the beginning but it's very fun. I would recommend this book to anyone but I  think it would be more enjoyed by an older crowd.
