Tuck Everlasting

Tuck Everlasting
By Natalie Babbitt

I read this book years and years ago, and rereading it was like visiting an old friend!
This story is sort of a meditation on life and death, and poses the question: what would happen if you could live forever? What if you could choose to do that? And what if you couldn't choose, but it happened anyway?
A little girl named Winnie falls in love with a peculiar family who "kidnap" her, and she is forever changed by the strange story they tell her about a magical spring, and the events that follow the kidnapping.
