Tuck Everlasting by Natalie Babbitt
3.0

I read this one to keep up with my fifth grader’s reading assignments. This was a thought-provoking theme, obviously. It was a little darker and more serious than I was expecting for a children’s selection. The author seems to favor detailed scenery descriptions when the reader is really anxious to find out what is to happen next. I’m sure this was done intentionally to draw out the suspense. All this said, It was well-done and kept my interest.
