about the book...
Imagine coming upon a fountain of youth in a forest. To live
forever--isn't that everyone's ideal? For the Tuck family, eternal
life is a reality, but their reaction to their fate is surprising.
Award winner Natalie Babbitt (Knee-Knock
Rise, The
Search for Delicious) outdoes herself in this sensitive,
moving adventure in which 10-year-old Winnie Foster is kidnapped,
finds herself helping a murderer out of jail, and is eventually
offered the ultimate gift--but doesn't know whether to accept
it. Babbitt asks profound questions about the meaning of life
and death, and leaves the reader with a greater appreciation
for the perfect cycle of nature. Intense and powerful, exciting
and poignant, Tuck Everlasting will last forever--in the reader's
imagination. -- Emilie Coulter of Amazon.com
