From: Mackenzie Grade 5 John T. Tuck P.S. Burlington, Ontario	To: Nick I think Winnie should believe the story because if there are a mom or dad there telling the story as well, then you know they're telling the truth.

From: Curtis Grade 5 John T. Tuck P.S. Burlington, Ontario	To: tracy How far have you read in Tuck Everlasting?

From: Gesthika Grade 5 John T. Tuck P.S. Burlington, Ontario	To: Evie,Rachel My favourite character is Winnie because she is one of the main characters. I'm on chapter 16. What chapter are you on? Do you like the book so far? My favourite part is when Winnie was taken by the Tucks.

From: Alison Grade 5 John T. Tuck P.S. Burlington, Ontario	To: Kaila Hi What Chapter are you on? I`m on 16. Who do you think the man in the yellow suit is? I think if he buys the forest he`ll find the magic water and try to sell it.

From: Matthew Grade 5 John T. Tuck P.S. Burlington, Ontario	To: Taylor and Kelsey I saw that you wrote to a friend in my class named Nathan. We think that the man in the yellow suit is trying to find and capture someone or something. What do you think?

From: Alison Grade 5 John T. Tuck P.S. Burlington, Ontario	To: Shelly Hi. I like Angus too but at the beginning he kind of scared me I have no idea why. After he took Winnie in the row boat he didn`t scare me anymore. My favorite character is Winnie I also like Mae Tuck.

From: mathieu Grade 5 John T. Tuck P.S. Burlington, Ontario	To: tiffany I think the man in the yellow suit is going to hurt Winnie. I think he plans to hurt her because he is after the water - what do you think?

From: Nathan Grade 5 John T. Tuck P.S. Burlington, Ontario	To: Taylor and Kelsey I think the man in the yellow suit is searching for the magic water because he heard them talking about it. What do you think the man in the yellow suit is searching for?

From: Alicia Grade 5 John T. Tuck P.S. Burlington, Ontario	To: Erica What chapter are you on? I'm on chapter sixteen. Who do you think the man in the yellow suit is? My favorite charactor is Winnie!

From: Katie Grade 5 John T. Tuck P.S. Burlington, Ontario	To: Kalia The chapter I am on is chapter 17. Right now I think the story is interesting. Why does the man in the yellow suit want Winnie? I thinks he wants her because now he nows that the water is for keeping them alive and the man is trying to get Winnie to see if it is true. What do you think? I hope that Winnie makes the choice to stay with the Tucks.What do you think will happen if Winnie gets captured?

From: matthew Grade 5 John T. Tuck P.S. Burlington, Ontario	To: Evie and Rachel I also wonder if they get pain.I'm guessing that they don't or at least barely because if Pa Tuck was shot in the chest and it pretty much didn't even leave a mark then that proves that they can't die,age or get hurt. Thanks for writing!I appreciate it!

From: Johntranette Grade 5 Mata Intermediate School Houston, TX	To: Rauol What you have drunk the water? Why or why not?

From: Nick Grade 5 Sheridan Elementary	To: Curtis I wouldn`t want to stay the same age forever because I want to be an astronaut someday.

From: Erica Grade 5 Sheridan Elementary	To: Kaila Hey I am on chapter 15, I think that the Tucks story is interesting because Winnie doesn't beleive the Tucks and it seems as it is not really the truth. What do you think of Jesse and Winnie?

From: Justin Grade 5 Sheridan Elementary	To: Katie I think the man in the yellow suit wants the wood for the magic spring. He probably wants to know if the Tuck's secret is true. What do you think about the man in the man in the yellow suit?

From: Josh Grade 5 Sheridan Elementary	To: Curtis I think the man in the yellow is one of Jessie's long lost friend. What chapter are you on?I'm on chapter 16.

From: Evie, Rachel Grade 5 Sheridan Elementary	To: Matthew Why do you think the man in the yellow suit took the Tucks horse? Why do you think that the man in the yellow suit just went up to the house and took the horse right from their house?

From: Taylor, Kelsey Grade 5 Sheridan Elementary	To: Nathan We think the man in the yellow suit took the hourse to the Foster's and will tell them that the spring makes you live forever. If they don't beleive, he will shoot the horse for proof or they will go to the Tuck's and tell them to give them Winnie and we will give you the horse back. Do you agree with us? Why or why not?

From: Shelby Sara Grade 5 Centennial School Plano, IL	To: Mathew Yes we believe the Tucks. Why do you believe the Tucks? What chapter are you on? We are on chapter 12.

From: Raoul	To: Johntranette Hi there! I just read your question. I don't know if I would drink the water, to be perfectly honest. I'm a careful kind of guy, and I would have to think about it a lot. It's tempting, but a little scary. Do you agree? What does everyone else think--would you drink the water?? Why, or why not?

From: Morgan Edgar David Grade 5 Centennial School Plano, IL	To: Josh Adam We agree with you completly! Write back ! B-bye!
