My sad favorite part of this book is the part when she hit the man in the yellow suit also known as the stranger with the gun. It was so so sad. But here's something funny don't you like the part when Jesse wants to marry Winnie I think it is very funny. That is why I keep on talking about it over and over.Do you have a funny part of the book and a sad part? This book is getting better and better.

Do you think when Mae goes to the gallows that she might get pain or suffocate a little even though she can't die? And what will happen when she doesn't die?

No I don't think that Jesse will marry Winnie at the end of the book.

Do you think the people who created Tuck Everlasting will make Tuck Everlasting two?

Hi!! My favorite character is Mae Tuck because she is sort of funny. Also she sticks up for Winnie when the man in the yellow suit comes to take her away.

Who is your favorite character and why?

I think the man in the yellow suit is wanting the spring for money. What do you think?

I think that Mae will fake that she is dead, and one of the boys will go," But she can't die." Then she will twitch and then the Tucks' will realize that she is faking it and might say we will bury her somewhere far from here.

Do you think the towns people will find out about the spring?

I think that Winnie will want to marry Jesse because they have become more than just good friends. I also think that Winnie will want to help Mae get out of jail and the gallows because she and the Tucks have become really good friends.

Do you think that Winnie will drink the water? Why or why not?

First of all, the man in the yellow suit did not die. If they were going to hang her, Mae would not die, and the towns people would think that she is a god!

My favorite part of Tuck Ever Lasting is when Mae hit the man in the yellow suit because that part of the book had alot of action and because I think the man in the yellow suit is a big fat jerk.

I think Winnie will marry Jesse because she really likes him and she thinks he is cute. Winnie I thinks wants to save the day but she doesn't know how. She has a plan to try but she is afraid to see if it works.

What is your favorite character in Tuck Everlasting and why? Mine is the constable now because I like the interesting people in the story and he is the riding rescue hero but not for Winnie because she doesn't want anything to happen to Mae.

What do you think about the book so far and why? This is one of my favorite books so far because of the way the author describes the story. She makes it sound so good and interesting and so real and the story just makes you want to read more.

I can't wait to finish the book because like I said it is interesting and I can't wait to finish it.

I am on chapter 23 three in the book so far. What chapter are you on?

What is your favorite part in the story and why?

Hi, I think Winnie will marry Jessie because when they first meet they like each other.

What do you think, will Jessie get Winnie to marry him? Do you think Mae will die when (if) she gets hung? Will the Tucks and Winnie find a way to save her?

I am thinking that Winnie will choose not to drink the water. Even though she really likes the Tucks, I believe she will take Tuck's advice and live a normal life. I don't think Miles and Jesse will get caught but I bet they leave Treegap for a long time. Would you drink the water?

We just read chapters 22-23 today. Winnie has really changed since the beginning of the book, hasn't she? She is really getting brave and wants to help the Tucks. Do you think she will drink the water that Jesse gave her?

No, I don't wish I was like Winnie. I love being part of a big family because there is never a dull moment. She has really changed since the beginning of the book though. I like her better now since she met the Tucks. How about you?
