Tuck Everlasting by Natalie Babbitt
Macmillan Publishers
Hardcover
Ages 10+
*KRISTEN’S PICK!*
Why don’t people read this book anymore? Natalie Babbitt's books were hot commodities when I was a girl, with Tuck Everlasting topping the list (I would also recommend The Search for Delicious, and The Devil’s Storybook, although I think it’s out of print). This book has so much to say about different kinds of love, and why what you want isn’t always the best choice. Along with Bridge to Terabithia, this book taught me empathy and that it’s ok to feel sad sometimes.
Is eternal life a blessing or a curse? That is what young Winnie Foster must decide when she discovers a spring on her family’s property whose waters grant immortality. Members of the Tuck family, having drunk from the spring, tell Winnie of their experiences watching life go by and never growing older.
But then Winnie must decide whether or not to keep the Tucks’ secret—and whether or not to join them on their never-ending journey.
A brand-new introduction from Gregory Maguire, the author of Wicked, and additional bonus materials make this special edition of Natalie Babbitt's Tuck Everlasting a must-have for lovers of the book and a great way to introduce a new generation to a classic.
