Tuck Everlasting
"Ten-year-old
Winnie Foster is sick of her life and feels as though she is
a prisoner in her own home. Weary of her
overprotective mother and grandmother, she runs away into the woods one
day, where she encounters Jesse Tuck, drinking from the
spring at the center of the woods. He and his family kidnap
her and reveal to her a secret they have never shared with
anyone else. Having drunk from the spring 87 years before,
the Tuck family has been given eternal life. Now Winnie
must decide whether she, too, wants to live forever. Her
journey through this coming-of-age novel and her ultimate decision impart a
story that will not soon be forgotten."
