Although I haven't read TUCK PARA SIEMPRE, (though I do speak a little Spanish), I read the English version, and anyone who thinks Tuck Everlasting is boring or bad, etc. was dropped on their heads when they were babies! The book was awesome! When my teacher passed it out in the 6th grade, I thought it would be boring, but it turned out to be my absolute favorite! My best friend gave me the book for Christmas a year later, and I've read it several times and cried everytime. Not only was it beautifully written, but I think Jesse and Winnie should have run off together. Sure, living forever wouldn't be peachy, but Jesse would have made it worth her while.
If a writer can pull at a reader's heart strings with their books, that's really something, but when the same author can do it to the same reader with the same book, that's incredible, and that is what Natalie Babbitt has done to me.
Oh yeah, don't forget-on October 11, the new Disney movie of TUCK EVERLASTING is coming to theatres! They made Winnie 15 so that she and Jesse could get REALLY romantic (and they do),and I'm so happy about it. It made me cry just watching the previews, because it looks beautifully done. ...
So, in conclusion, Tuck Everlasting is a story that will stay with me forever, because it has touched my life.

The best boks I have ever read u ask? Thats EASY! Tuck Everlasting by Natalie Babbitt. Tuck Everlasting is about a 10 year old girl named Winnie Foster who lives in a town called Treegap. One day she stumbles across a "17 year old" guy named Jesse Tuck in the wood her family owns. She fights with him over a spring she comes across and sees him drinking out of. She faints, but when she comes to, she is on the back of Mae Tuck's (Jesse's mom)horse. They take her back to thier cottage and tell her a wonderful story about how they drank from that spring and are now immortal. She stays with the Tucks over night, but a man in a yellow suit had already arranged a deal with her parents: If he can bring Winnie home, they will give him the wood. He tells the Tucks how he is going to market the spring water, and he wants them to help him advertise. Mae gets mad, and in a frantic attempt to save Winnie and the water, she accidentaly kills the man. Jesse gives Winnie a bottle of the water and tells her to wait until she is 17 to drink it so they can get married. I won't give away the ending, but I will tell you that I didn't think it ended the way it was supposed to, and it made me literally cry. I hope it can be as enjoyable for you as it has been for me, and I hope there is a book like it somewhere in the world that I happen to come across.

I ordered the book for one of my students who is an English Language Learner, but who still enjoys reading stories in her native language. I believe she had already read the book in English, but wanted to make sure she fully understood what she had read. The book arrived in excellent condition and just a day or two later than I had expected. My student was delighted to receive it. Thank you.
