Kristin [and anyone else out there], I agree with you. When i first got the book i though, i was a little shaky on answering Would you like to live forever. I thought, hey, it would be pretty neat. TO see all the changes in the world and in the people. Now though it isn't so great. People would call you things and think you are werid or a witch.. Or even the devil like Miles said. I am fine dying and knowing i should live a good life because you never know when you'll die. It comes in surprise. It is one of the many surprises in life. It kind of ruins your surprises and all the action and tragedy knowing you'll live forever. There is sooooo much vocabulary in this book. I like it. Just at first it was a little slow. [to anyone and Kristin] Please respond!!!!

HI Nena[and everyone else],Don't feel bad not many people have written back to me. :) I really want to read on too!! i guess though it is better to read it, do a diary page, and then discuss it. It helps me remember better. What chapters have you read?? I want to find out more about the stranger. He is a strange character. I think and is almost positive he is going after the Tucks. He's been following them an awful lot. I feel like i have to keep and extra eye out for him. RESPOND!!!! Lauren

Dear Kellie,
If you dom't believe what winnie's folks say about elves what do you think the music is made from? I also believe she likes Jesse, Miles might just be her friend.

Do you think Winnie enjoyed the boat ride? Why or why not?

Do you think you would like to sit at dinner at your house like the Tucks did? I think it would be fun sometimes.

Hey Everyone!!! i think this is a great book. I don't think Winnie liked the boat ride. I would have wanted to go home too. The stranger is a very suspicious character. I thin he is after the Tucks and is going to try to at least, pry out other ibformation from Winnie, because he already knows their secret. What do you think???? And anyone PLEASE RESPOND!
