I think this an amazing book but it can be hard to understand at times. It's about Winnie Foster running away from home and meeting the Tuck's. They are a family of four. But they were not any average family they were immortal meaning they wouldn't die because they drank from a spring.

I gave this book two stars because I am not really into this book. It is about a girl named Winnie who is not happy about life even though she isn't that poor. Her house is really nice. She isn't happy because she is forced to stay in a forest and talks to a frog. Winnie escapes and meets the Tucks. Then the man in the yellow suit tells Winnie's family and constable that the Tucks kidnapped Winnie. Mae Tuck hits the man in the yellow suit with a shotgun, goes to jail, breaks out and makes Winnie dress as Mae and gave Winnie the spring water. She didn't drink the spring water but she poured it on the frog. I can't relate to this book and I didn't really like it that much.
This is an amazing book. It is full of figurative language. It is very interesting and full of twist that makes it very interesting and unique. I'm giving it 5 stars for and very detailed and interesting plot.
I think this book is amazing! It shows the struggles of the daily life of Winnie and the Tucks'. Natalie Babbit brings them together in perfect detail and teaches them both something about their lives. I am rating this book 5 stars because of the amazing detail and plot. That is why I loved the book Tuck Everlasting!
I gave this book a 3 star because it wasn't really that exciting. It is about a girl named Winnie foster she is 10 years old. She meets a family with immortality and the family kept it a secret for seven years they regret drinking from the fountain. And Winnie is thinking if she should drink from the fountain. Then one day a man in a yellow suit follows Winnie and sees the tucks and new something was wrong. Read more to find out if she drinks from the fountain
If you like fiction books then I recommend this book this book was very interesting, because this girl named Winnie Foster who had no idea that a boy liked her and he had a brothers their names were Jesse and Miles. Winnie was going to run away and she stumbled into the spring and met Jesse Tuck, he was the who liked her. He brought her to his mom Mae Tuck and his brother Miles. I didn't make any connections with this story but maybe you can? That's why i rated this book 3 stars
I think the ending was a little disappointing. I do not like the way the Tuck's found out about Winnie's death where they saw her gravestone. I did like the way Winnie was so comfortable with the family and how the Tuck's bonded with her. I also liked that Winnie made the choice to not drink the water, so that she did not have to go through moving and hiding all of the time like the Tuck's.
I gave this book a three star rating because it wasn't the best book I've ever read but, I liked the figurative language it used. The story starts with the Tuck family, who drank the spring water and now have eternal life, find Winnie wanting to drink from the spring. Then a man in a yellow suit comes and tries to sell the spring water. Winnie helps the Tuck family leave town before their secret is revealed. I made a connection with this book because I am interested with the unknown.
I give this book a 2 star because I don"t really like the book at all because I don"t find it entertaining or interesting,but the book is about a ten year old who leaves her home wanders into a tree gap,the tucks tell Winnie the secret about the water and tells her it gives you everlasting life and tells Winnie that all of the tucks have everlasting life.
I give this book a 3 star because it wasn't interesting to me. The connection I made with this book is that I have a tight schedule and so does she. This book is about a family who drank from everlasting water. So now they are everlasting. One of the family members is sentenced to death because she killed a man. Then Winnie and her switch places because the women was everlasting and they didn't want there secret to be revealed. Unfortunately Winnie dies at the end of old age and pourss the everlasting life water onto a frog.
