I really like the book. I`m going to see the movie when it comes out.I`m not sure if I would believe them because I would have just met them but if I knew them well I would probably believe them.
Who is your favorite character? Mine is Winnie.

Wow - Tuck gave Winnie a lot to think about when he talked to her on the boat. Tuck seems really sad and I think he doesn't want Winnie to go through what he and his family have been through. He wants her to live a normal life and I think he has convinced me, too!

I think Winnie likes Jesse a lot but I don't think she wants to leave her family. Do you think Winnie will drink the water?

The Tucks have to take her because they don't want her to tell everyone. What chapter are you on?

I think that the man in the yellow suit was shot because he called the Tuck's stupid and other mean names and because he pushed Winnie out the door and that made Mae Tuck mad. Also I wonder how the constable got to the scene so very quickly because his horse was so slow and the man in the yellow suit ran so far ahead so quickly.If you have any comments for me, send them and I will respond as fast as I possibly can!See-ya!

Mae is in danger because she shot the man in the yellow suit. What do you think will happen to Mae?

To: Sally
How do you like the book so far? I'm on chapter 24. The book
is great. Once you get to chapter 20 it does get a little
scary because Mae shoots the man in the yellow suit but I
can't tell you anymore because I don't want to give away
the story. If there was such thing as the spring I would
like to drink it because I can see the future but I won't
like to drink it because I won't be on the life wheel. Would
you like to drink the spring?

I think that Winnie is going to drink the water. Because I think that Winnie likes Jesse and when he told her about when she grows up and gets 17 that she could drink the water and get married and I think this is a great book too.

That's a good question, I don't think Winnie's dad will get her from the Tucks because the straneger in the yellow suit said he would get with a constable and get winnie if the Fosters gave him the forest. Why do you think the guy in the yellow suit wants the forest?

Hey Carmen, I really would not drink of the spring because everybody has to have a turn in the life cycle. For right now Winnie is my favorite character. I would really be scared if someone came and took me to their house with me not knowing whats happening. What do you think?

Hey I would want to live forever because I could see the world and get a good education.

Why would you want to live forever?

From:
Rachel

To: Matthew
I think that the man in the yellow suit wants the wood because he wants to drink from the spring or sell the water for alot of money so other people can live forever too. Which would make the world a very crammed place to be.

What do you think the man in the yellow suit will do?

From:

To: Everyone
I think that the man in the yellow suit is a dangerous man because he wants to make a plan so the Foster family can get Winnie back in exchange for the spring , if he was a generous man he would of just told the Fosters where Winnie was.

How does the man in the yellow suit make you feel,and why?

We would rather live in the Tuck's house because they are proper but not so proper that you have to use napkins. You can be more relaxed because we won't be afraid to make a mess. We don't think that licking your fingers is a big deal.
