Nostalgic and thought-provoking. I loved this story as a kid and this walk down memory lane via audiobook was enjoyable.

I liked it. Why didn't Winnie drink the water though!!!
I love this book but it would have been so much better if she was older.

I owned a copy of this when I was little and I loved it because it had a frog on the cover but never read it. I wish I had because little me would have loved this. This is an amazing example of how thoughtful and meaningful middle grades books can be, and I'm sure it will remain a classic. Babbitt did a great job of showing how living forever can be painful and lonely, even to a child audience. And Winnie is such a fun character. Overall an excellent book, I'd recommend to anyone, especially if you missed reading this when you were younger!
I've heard about this book, and finally got around to it. Audio is only 4 hours, narrator is excellent.
