so may not appreciate it, but for anyone with a free afternoon, try this story. A lot of kids these days are forced to read these on the torturesome summer reading lists etc. Tuck Everlasting holds more power than it looks like it does. So, in conclusion, Tuck Everlasting is a story that will stay with me forever, because it has touched my life. It made me cry just watching the previews, because it looks beautifully done.

If a writer can pull at a reader's heart strings with their books, that's really something, but when the same author can do it to the same reader with the same book, that's incredible, and that is what Natalie Babbitt has done to me.Oh yeah, don't forget-on October 11, the new Disney movie of TUCK EVERLASTING is coming to theatres! They made Winnie 15 so that she and Jesse could get REALLY romantic (and they do),and I'm so happy about it. Sure, living forever wouldn't be peachy, but Jesse would have made it worth her while. Not only was it beautifully written, but I think Jesse and Winnie should have run off together. was dropped on their heads when they were babies! The book was awesome! When my teacher passed it out in the 6th grade, I thought it would be boring, but it turned out to be my absolute favorite!

Philia-the love appropriate to your pack-is the will to do something for those who are of your pack, even though you desperately don’t want to do it, even though it horrifies and sickens you, and even though you may ultimately have to pay a very high price for it, perhaps heavier than you can bear. There is one thing without which philia cannot exist and this is not a matter of feeling but of the will. The essence of philia is, I think, far harsher, far crueller, than we care to admit.
