Book Reviews of Tuck Everlasting

Book Review: A light, yet thought-provoking read
Summary: 4 Stars

"Tuck Everlasting", by Natalie Babbitt, is a fairly short book, yet it still manages to be a thought-provoking story that brings up a lot of issues, such as what we need in life to be happy.

In the book, the strictly brought-up and proper main character, Winnie finds a spring whose water makes the drinker immortal. She doesn't drink from it, however, because she is stopped by the Tuck family, who are immortal. They are the only ones who know the secret of the spring. At first she is angry, but gradually she comes to understand what immortality really means and she is glad the Tucks stopped her from drinking.

Immortality is something that has always fascinated the human race, who wouldn't want to live forever? This book examines immortality carefully and really makes the reader think hard about it.
