From: Shelby Grade 6 Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	To: Everyone Hello!This book is great-Natalie Babbit is an excellent writer, don't you agree?

From: Chels Grade 6 Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	To: Kylee Steph Jenna If Mae goes to the gallows, what do tou think will happen?

From: Shawn Grade 6 Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	To: Everone Hi I think this book is really good. It's funny and kinda sad.

From: Cynthia Grade 6 Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	I think Winnie is going to marry Jesse and drink the water when she's seventeen because she really likes Jesse and when she first met him and didn't know he could live forever, she thought he was a glorious boy and flirted with him. What do you think?

From: nick Grade 6 Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	To: BreeBree The stranger did die because that is what the constable said.

From: Shelby Grade 6 Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	To: Shawn What do you think will happen to Winnie?Do you think she'll marry Jesse?

From: kylee m. Grade 6 Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	To: everyone I think Mae is in danger because if the stranger dies then Mae will go to the gallows.If she goes to the gallows then she won't die and people from the town will think that there is something weird going on. If she doesn't die the constable might leave her in jail forever or do something worse to her then the gallows.

From: Shanae Grade 6th Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	To: Chealsea Mae is in danger because she hit the stranger in the head with the shotgun. The constable said to Mae if the stranger dies you will be sent to the gallows. Then later that day she found out he was dead and she shall be hanged.

From: nick Grade 6 Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	To: BreeBree That is why Mae is in jail.

From: Kelsey Grade 6 Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	To: Everyone Hey! This is my first time on this site and I think all your things you wrote were interesting. I like Winnie the most and I like how she grows up so fast. Who is your favorite? Mae was in danger I believe because she may have to go to the gallows and she wouldnt die. Do you think that Mae will have to go to the gallows? I think the plan will work and Mae will be taken out but Winnie could be caught and than she could get in evan more trouble. What do you think? I really like this book.

From: Chels Grade 6 Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	To: Shanae Do you think that Winnie is going to drink the water when she is 17? I'm not sure.

From: Niko Grade 6 Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	Hi this is my first time writing. If Mae gets sent to the galoos evryone will find out about the spring and mae wont die. I dont like the story that much I think it stinks.

From: Nastajjjia Grade 6 Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	To: Jenna, Shelby, Kylee Hey! everyone. This is a great book don't you think? I think Winnie will drink the water from the spring. I also think that Jesse will marry Winnie also.Do you think that the constable will catch the Tucks? Wait and see.

From: Nicholas Grade 6 Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	Hello, this is my first time writing! Wasn't chapter 22-23 suspenceful but cool because they planned to get Mae out of jail. My favorite charector is Jesse.

From: Shawn Grade 6 Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	To: Shelby I think that Winnie will marry Jesse And Live Forever.

From: Jonathan Grade 6 Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	This Book is great.This is the first time I'm on this site and all your comments sounded great.Winnie gets kidnapeped by the Tucks and they start to become friends.She starts to feel older with the way they treat her.They think of a plan to get Mae out of jail. What's your favorite character?Mine is Jesse.

From: Jenna Grade 6 Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	To: Chelsea Hi? what do to think is going to happen at the end? Are you enjoing this book so far? I think this is a great book! I cant wait to see the movie.

From: David Grade 6 Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	To: Everyone I wanted to if the Winnie drinks the water. I think she does. Heres why 1. She thinks Jesse is cute. 2. Once she said the Tuck's story made her want to drink a gallon of the water. 3.Jesse asked her to drink the water when shes 17. But one time Winnie said,"I don't want to drop off the wheel of life." What do you think?

From: Morgan Grade 6 Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	To: Abbey and Marissa Whats up?If you haven't read this book you should because it is a very adventures, but I think it is mostly a romance book.Before you go see the movie you should read the book it is more exciting then the movie.I think Winnie is going to drink the spring that Jesse gave to her and she will go off and marry Jesse and live forever.I hopr the plan works out and the constable will not find Mae and the Tucks.I hope that the constable will not find out that Winnie is taking Mae's place.

From: Stephanie Grade 6th Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	To: everyone Why do you think Mae is in danger? I think she is in danger because the constable knows that she shot the stranger and now she is in the gallows. Now if they try to hang Mae or shoot her nothing will happen to her. Then they will probably find out about the spring!

From: Justin Grade 6 Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	To: everybody Do you think the stranger deserved to die? What would you do if you were in Mae`s place.(chapters 19 and 21)

From: Amy Grade 6 Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	To: anyone hello i read chapters 20 and 21 last week. Mae is in danger because the stranger died and Mae might have to go to the gallows. everyone will find out her secret. i think that Winnie changed a lot since being with the Tucks. she was always watched and now she is like an adult. before she didn't have any real friends and now she has the Tucks.goodbye write back!

From: Kurt Grade 6 Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	To: Everyone Hi! This is my first time on this site. I was very interested with all of your comments. They were funny. Who is your favorite character. Mine is the Toad. This is because he always gives something for Winnie to talk to. I am on chapters 22-23. They were very interesting. I do not think that Mae will go to the gallows because I think that the plan will work. Jesse is in love with Winnie. Everyone knows that. But I don't think that Winnie will drink the water Jesse gave her. Tuck's conversation with her on the lake was very interesting. She is smart enough not to drink it. The big story graph I constructed is kind of hard to put into words but I would like to tell a little about the Fosters. No one thinks that the Fosters are a big part of the book. But you're WRONG. They are a big part of the book. They kind of controled Winnie like an egg. Like she was easily broken. When she was kidnapped by the Tucks, she learned a little on how to be an adult because they all shared information with her that is very important. If anyone wants to write me back please DO!!!

From: Brian Grade 6th grade Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	To: eveyone what chap. are u on

From: cooljbob Grade 6 Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	To: niko this book is great niko when we see the movie i think it will be an edge of your seat thriller.

From: Bridget B. Grade 6 Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	To: Shelby I disagree i think that winnie wont marry Jessie because she would have to find him and drink the warter. And what would happen to her if she didnt find him. Then no one would want to marry her cause she would never change,and get older!

From: brianne Grade 6 Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	To: everyone this book is such a good don't you think the movie will be just as good

From: Bridget B. Grade 6 Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	To: Niko I diagree this book is a great book. You should never say a book stinks when you didnt even finish it!

From: Becca Grade 6 Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	To: Everyone i like this book it is pretty cool!Dont you?

From: Brian Grade 6th grade Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	To: eveyone this book is great dont you think so? it is exciting when all this stuff happens like when mae hits the stranger with a shotugn and there talking about mae getting hung itis wild isnt it it is so ecxiting isnt it what do u think

From: curtis Grade 5 John T. Tuck P.S. Burlington, Ontario	To: carmin this book is exciting

From: Mike Grade 6 Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	To: Erica Hi Erica, My favorite character is jesse because he always likes to fool around he likes living forever unlike mae,angus,and miles. they are all serious like and don't like it and want to die! But thats why i like jesse he takes advantage of living forever and does crazy kinds of things and thats why I like him the most anyone who wants to write back to me please don't hesitate to ask

From: Ant Grade 6 Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	To: Justin.M Ryan.H and Joe.M Yo guys dont u think this book is pretty cool.I do its really funny and sad.my favorite charecter is mae like how she is so big and she is so strong .Do u think the stranger deserved to get hit by the gun on the head I sure do he tryed to force winnie to go with him.yo guys write me bac its lil Ant.Have fun readin everybody hope u like the book.Later

From: Jaclyn Grade 6 Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	To: Stephanie Stephanie I disagree with what you said. Mae did not shoot the stranger in chapter 19. Mae hit the stranger with the shotgun, but she did not shoot him.She hit him very hard thats why he dropped to the ground like a tree.

From: Rachelle Grade 5 John T. Tuck P.S. Burlington, Ontario	To: Abby Dear Abby, Do you like the book Tuck Everlasting? I finished the book it was good.

From: Janine Grade 6th grade Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	To: Steph Steph, I disagree with ur comment about when you said mae shot the stanger in ch.19. It said that mae swung the gun around her head and it said with a dull craking sound, the stock (which is the handle part of the gun) smashed into the back of the stanger's sull.

From: Mikkell Grade 6 Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	To: Chels and Stephanie Hey, What Up? Who is your fav. character?Mine is Winnie.I also like Jesse. I disagree with Stephaine.In ch. 19 Mae did not shoot the stranger.She hit the stranger in the head with the shot gun.I don't think she should have gone to jail because she was only trying to protect Winnie.Both of you write me back please.

From: curtis Grade 5 John T. Tuck P.S. Burlington, Ontario	To: marco I think they ar going to make here talk

From: michael Grade 6 Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	To: To Everyone I think the book Tuck Everlasting because its kind of funny and sad at the same time. I like Mae Tuck because she hit the stranger in the head with a shotgun. I'm going to be reading chapter 24 very soon. I think the book is very nice because people of all ages can read it. I would recamend this book because it is a very good book. I would give it 4 stars out of five. P.S. If anyone is reading this type me back and tell me who your favorite charactors are

From: Ant Grade 6 Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	To: Justin.M Ryan.H and Joe.M Yo guys dont u think this book is pretty cool.I do its really funny and sad.my favorite charecter is mae like how she is so big and she is so strong .Do u think the stranger deserved to get hit by the gun on the head I sure do he tryed to force winnie to go with him.yo guys write me bac its lil Ant.Have fun readin everybody hope u like the book.Later

From: Harpreet Grade Six Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	To: Shawn I think Winnie won't marry Jesse because I think something sad is going to happen to her and she won't be able to marry Jesse. I think she will give the water to someone else. It might be that Winnie was not going to marry Jesse because she wouldn't want to see other people get killed i front of her. She wants to marry Jesse but I think she is not going to like it when Jesse lives but she doesn't. I think Winnie is going to give the water to someone special that she knows. She would only give it to the stranger or the toad.

From: Kerri Grade 6 Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	Hello! I think Tuck Everlasting is a good book. I like when mae hits the stranger with the gun and kills him. I think the Tucks will gtry to get Mae out, but then get caught. Ican't wait to find out.I think that Winne will drink the water, but never find Jesse. Then she will have to live by herself forever.

From: Jackie Grade 5 John T. Tuck P.S. Burlington, Ontario	To: Everyone I saw a part of Tuck Everlasting on tv and the man in the yellow suit looks really bad.When Mae shot the man in the yellow suit I thought Mae was going to be caught because then people will know that she will live forever.

From: Danielle Grade 5 John T. Tuck P.S. Burlington, Ontario	I would not drink the water. I think the cycle of life is, one life dies and one life starts.

From: Danielle Grade 5 John T. Tuck P.S. Burlington, Ontario	I would not drink the water. I think the cycle of life is, one life dies and one life starts.

From: curtis Grade 5 John T. Tuck P.S. Burlington, Ontario	To: Zoubie That is what I also like about the book. I like it when they broke Mae out of jail.

From: Rachelle Grade 5 John T. Tuck P.S. Burlington, Ontario	To: Abby Dear, Abby I think that they will get married because it seems they like each other. Would you marry Jesse or Miles? From:Rachelle

From: Mackenzie Grade 5 John T. Tuck P.S. Burlington, Ontario	To: Sally I think that Mae won't die because the man in the yellow suit was going to tell everyone about the spring.

From: Gesthika Grade 5 John T. Tuck P.S. Burlington, Ontario	To: Sally I think there is a reason for the life wheel too. I am finished the novel, are you? I think it is sad at the end because all the Fosters die. Do you think it is sad?

From: cooljbob Grade 6 Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	To: kylee i agreee but i dont because when they give mae the gallows theyll see shes not dieing and try other stuff like shooting her and stabbing her and eventullay i think the'll bury her alive.

From: Jenna F. Grade 6 Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	To: Sammy, Janine, Lindsey Hey! How do you like the book so far? I think it is a great book. I just didn't like the prolouge. I thought that part was boring. Some of the parts in the book i didn't understand, but now that i've read father in to the book I understand those parts. What do you think will happen o Mae? I think that since she can't die the towns people will get supious and find out she can't die. When the constable finds this out he might make Mae stay in jail forever, or something worse then that. I feel bad for Mae. I wonder hats going to happen to her.

From: mathieu Grade 5 John T. Tuck P.S. Burlington, Ontario	To: raoul It's sad that Winnie died at the end at the age 78. What do you think.

From: samantha Grade 6th Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	To: everyone Do u think mae will drink the water when she is seventeen? If the stranger dies then mae will have to go to the gallows. If she goes to the gallows then she will havre to get hanged. If she gets hanged and doesnt dies then the people would think of her very scuspious of her!

From: Katie Grade 5 John T. Tuck P.S. Burlington, Ontario	To: Glenda I would not drink the water because I would want to grow up.I am down the book.

From: matthew Grade 5 John T. Tuck P.S. Burlington, Ontario	To: Sally Thanks for writing to me. It doesn't happen very often. You know I'm now finished the book, but don't worry I won't tell you anything if that's what you want.The only thing is that Mae does escape but I'm not telling how!Please write back soon! I really appreciate it!Bye.

From: mathieu Grade 5 John T. Tuck P.S. Burlington, Ontario	To: sally I wouldn't want to live forever because I couldn't see my dad and mom.

From: Ryan H Grade 6 Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	To: ant Ant I agree with you this book is great. I think that winnie will not drink the water because that she will have to drink the water than go all over looking for jesse. By the time she find jesse he will not want to marry her.

From: Pete G Grade 6 Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	To: Gabe Delgaiso I think this book is great.I like when the constable finds out tha winnie is the 1 in the cell.It is the most exciting part of the book.i also can't wait until the movie comes out and our classes go to see it.I think it will be a thriller.

From: cole Grade 6 Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	To: everyone hi. do you like this book so far and what it is about. it's really discriptive. tell me what you think will happen in the future.

From: Pete G Grade 6 Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	To: Gabe Delgaiso I think this book is great.I like when the constable finds out tha winnie is the 1 in the cell.It is the most exciting part of the book.i also can't wait until the movie comes out and our classes go to see it.I think it will be a thriller.

From: Jason Grade 6 Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	To: Everybody! Everybody! This book is pretty interesting. It has a little of everything: Action, Adventure, Romance, Comedy, a little of everything. I think the movie isn't going to do as well. It looked more like a little of disney. Romance and really bad acting. I don't think in the book Jesse will ever say "You're Joshing me!" Joshing...Ha! Anyways, I hope this book doesn't end like the movie trailer suggests and the movie isn't as good as the book. Also: 1. What do you think will happen to the Tucks? 2. Do you think Winnie will drink the water? 3. What was your favorite part?

From: Jenna Grade 6 Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	To: Anyone I think this book is really great! I can't wait to see the movie. What do you think about the book? It's very exciting and has a neat topic. For some reason, I don't think Winnie will go back to marry Jesse because she doesn't want to drop off the wheel of life. I also think the stranger deserved to die. My favorite character is Jesse.

From: Pat Grade 6 Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	To: shaun do you tink the stranger deserve to die I do? he tried to take Winnie. did you like the book?

From: Stephen Grade 6 Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	To: Sally Sally do not belief Mackenzie The stranger did not get shot he was hit on the back of the head with the gun , said Natalie Babbitt .

From: cole Grade 6 Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	To: everyone hi. do you like this book so far and what it is about. it's really discriptive.it tells you all about the nature, the people, and their surroundings. what do you think will happen to mae now that the staner is dead. tell what you thind will happen in the future.

From: Jessie Grade 6 Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	To: Kurt Hello Kurt. I wanted to respond to some of your coments. I agree with what you said about Winnie, she is smart enough to not drink the water Jesse gave her. I like happy endings though, so I wouldn't be surprised if she did drink the water. Yes, this is a good book and I think the ending will turn out good. Do you think the Tucks will get caught when they try to free Mae? Do you think that the constable will catch Winnie when she takes her place in the jail cell? That's funny that your favorite character is the toad! You had a good explaination, and yes, he does keep Winnie company and gives her some one to talk to. Personally, my favorite character is Jesse, hey! we have the same name! I don't think he'll marry Winnie because I dont think she'll drink the spring water. ~Please Respond Back~

From: Danielle Grade 6 Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	To: people I think that Winnie will drink the water. I think that she will give it to some one eles that she thinks deservse it. I don't think that Winnie will ever get in touch the Tucks again. Isn't this an interesting book! ~!Please some one write to me!~

From: Pete G Grade 6 Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	To: Gabe Delgaiso,Kevin Strate,Joe Wagner,and everyone I think this book is great.I like when the constable finds out tha winnie is the 1 in the cell.It is the most exciting part of the book.i also can't wait until the movie comes out and our classes go to see it.I think it will be a thriller.What do u think huh!A little bit.

From: Mike Grade 6 Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	To: dave nace I think the book is really good so far,dont u because the tucks drank from the spring and mae killed the strangerand has to go to jail.The constable might find out that winnie swiched places with mae and the tucks might go to jail. write back

From: Candice Grade 6 Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	To: anyone This book is so good. The movie problably be good to. In fact, as a 6th grade we're going to see the movie. the movie looks alot different than the book. The movie looks like a romance. This book doesn't really involve that stuff. Write back.

From: Jon Grade 6 Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	To: everone I realy like chapter 19. I like it because Mae hit the stranger. I think this is an ok book. I think it will get better.I think it will get better if Winnie drinks from the spring.

From: Pete G Grade 6 Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	To: Gabe Delgaiso,Kevin Strate,Joe Wagner,and everyone I think this book is great.I like when the constable finds out tha winnie is the 1 in the cell.It is the most exciting part of the book.i also can't wait until the movie comes out and our classes go to see it.I think it will be a thriller.What do u think huh!A little bit.

From: Veronica Grade 6 Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	To: Chelsea, Alex, Mikkell, Brianne hey what was your faveroite chapter in the book so far? I like the chapter(s) when Winnie becomes attached to the Tucks.It is a great feeling to be loved by someone.Then it so cool when Jesse asked Winnie to marry him when she is 17 years old.I hope everyone has a happily ever after life.

From: ryan b Grade 6 Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	To: anyone Do you like this book? I do. I think it's a good book becaue I like the figurative language. Some people might not agree with me, but I think Natalie Babbitt's figurative language is rich and it amazes me. Her characters are really cool! I like Miles. He is my favorite character, even though he hasn't done much yet. He is a blacksmith and has large muscles, according to Winnie. I like this book and can't wait to see the movie.

From: Chelsea G. Grade 6 Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	To: Jenna F. Hi everyone! I think this is a great book. Winnie is my favorite charater. I think there plan will work about getting Mae out of jail. Because the Tucks are smart people and I believe they can do it. I think Winnie will drink the water Jesse gave her from the spring, and run away with him and get married. Don't you think that?

From: Crysta Grade 6th Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	To: Everybody and anybody! I think that Tuck Everlasting is a really excelent book. Natilie Babbitt really builds up suspense that just want to make you read till the end of time! She really puts her heart and soul into the book to make it a sucess story and to make it a select book for any age. I can't wait to finish the book! So far I'm enjoying it. And I hope all of you are to!

From: Karen Grade 6 Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	To: Everyone This book is very good! Im almost done the book. I think Winnie is not going to drink the water even if Jessie said they would get maried. I think she won't drink the water because she wants to be part of the life circle.

From: chelsea M. Grade 6 Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	To: mikkell, brianne, veronica, lindsey, alex, jenna hey guys waz up? do u like this book? I think its pretty kewl! whats ur favorite chapter in the book? I like the one where winnie and jesse meet and when winni gets kidnapped! my favorite character is the toad!!! I think he is really kewl! If i saw jesse and i was winnie, id probably have a crush on him too! But it wouldnt go so far that id want to live forever! Tuck even said hed give anything to get back on that wheel of life, and he didnt think he'd be sorry for it after. I dont think winnie is goind to risk living forever for jesse, even though she loves him so much! she also loves the tucks and the tucks love her! I wonder what winnie is going to do when she goes to the jailcell!

From: Carmen	To: Everyone Welcome to Chestnut Ridge, a school that just joined us today. Your comments have been great this week! Keep up the good work!

From: Steven Grade 6 Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	To: Everyone Mae has killed the man in the yellow suit in chapter 21 .But I thought that Tuck was thinking about giving him some of the spring water.So that he would not die so then Mae would not have to go to the gallows.Winnie has to go back to the Fosters and she told the constable that she was not kidnapped.

From: Kevin M Grade 6 Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	To: anyone, anywhere I dont think Winnie will drink the water. I think she'll just marry him and die when she does. I think she'll listen to Tuck.

From: Lane Grade 6 Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	To: Everyone I think this is a good topic to make a story aout.I do think it is a little boring. They should add a little action to it I think. Well i think it is going to be a good movie.

From: mohammed Grade 6 Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	To: everyone I do not think Winnie should take a big risk and pretend to be Mae in the prison. I do not think Winnie will marry Jesse.

From: Alec Grade 6 Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	The Tuck movie is being made like "the next Disney feature." I also found out some interesting things about the cast. The actress for Winnie is really 22 years old. The actor for Jesse was once on an ABC soap opra!

From: Elise Grade 6th Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	To: stephaine Stephaine, I think that your anwser is cool but if you remember that Mae did not shot the stranger. Mae hit the stranger's skull and cracked his skull but she never shot him!

From: Abbey Grade 6th Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	To: Morgan, Marissa, hey guys!i mean gurls. I don't think that Winnie is going to drink the water!

From: ethan Grade 6th Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	To: Everyone Hi do you think that winnie will drink the water that Jesse gave her?

From: Samantha Grade 6 Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	To: kurt I also think this book is great. I like how you described er like a egg.

From: steven G. Grade 6 Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	To: everyone I am happy that the stranger died because he was taking winnie against her will. I am not happy that he died because the constable saw the whole thing and arrested mae.

From: Boo Bob Grade 6 Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	To: Everyone My favorite part is when the man in the yellow suit died. I wonder if Mae would be rescued.

From: Tim Grade 6th Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	To: everyone Hi this book is sorta cool but it dosen't have any action in it.I don't think Winnie will drink from the spring because she knows about all the consaquences and what will hapen to her if she does

From: Mike Grade 6th Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	To: Kurt I think Jesse,Miles,Angus and Winnie will get Mae out of jail and Winnie will not get caught taking Mae's place.But i think in the next chapters there are going to do something to Winnie and she is going to die because she didn't drink the water.

From: Katelyn N Grade 6 Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	To: Maggie and anyone that wants to read This book is really good! Anyone who says it stinks should think again. I haven't finished the book, but can't wait to. I think what Mae did was right but wrong. After all the stranger did deserve it! A lot of people say that Mae shot the stranger, but she didn't! I can't wait till our field trip to see the movie. It looks so much different then the book does. Hope everyone is enjoying the book. Read on!

From: Ryan Grade 6 Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	To: everyone I tink this book is pretty good. It teaches you abuot life. I do think Winnie will drink the water. I disagree about that Mae shot the stranger. Mae cracked the stranger's head open by wacking him with her gun.

From: mohammed Grade 6 Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	To: everyone I do not think Winnie should take a big risk and pretend to be Mae in the prison. I do not think Winnie will marry Jesse.

From: Jordan Grade 6 Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	To: ryanf joeyw rickp I think that the stranger diserved to die because he was a rotten gie anyway and I think Mae is smart because she cracked him over the head with a shotgun ad Iam glad that he is dead.

From: Angelina Grade 6 Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	To: Kurt Hi! I agree with you that Winnie is smart and will not drink the spring water that Jesse gave her. Even though she loves him she won't. This is a big decision for her. I was thinking about it myself-if I were in her position. I thought long and hard but I thought about my family. What would they think if one day I was gone and never came back. They would worry so much about me. I just couldn' do that to them! I hope Winnie doesn't do it either. Even though them may be really boody and mean to her, it is worth it! I hope she does the right thing! *~Write Back Please!~* P.S. My favorite character is Winnie. I also like Mae but if I had to pick one it would be Winnie!

From: Chrissy Grade 6 Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	To: To EVERYONE! Mae is in danger because the stranger was going to take Winnie.but Mae was not going to let the stranger take Winnie away.So mae took a shotgun and swung it around her head in a circle ad hits him in the bavk of his head. So now the constable sees Mae hit the stranger and fall down like a tree.Now this is the part when mae gets in big trouble.She gets in big trouble because the constable takes Mae to jail.Then he takes Winnie home. The constable said that if the stranger is dead then Mae willhave to go to the gallows.now there is good news and bad news.The good news is that if mae goes to the gallows she will not die.But the bad news is that if she goes to the gallows everyone will know the secret.

From: cindy Grade 5 Centennial School Plano, IL	To: sally If I were Winnie I would drink the water and live happily. Yes,she has been growing a child to a responsible teen.

From: kevin Grade 6 Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	To: everyone Do u think Winnie will be able to change places with Mae and get away with it?

From: Luke Grade 6 Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	To: My Friends Do you think Winnie is going to drink the spring water?

From: jim C. Grade 6 Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	i don't like this book this book stunck.i don't want to be mean but whoever said this book rocked or something i don't agree with you

From: kyle Grade 6 Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	This comment is on Chapter 19. This is the Chapter when Mae hits the stanger. I think that Mae had a right to hit him. I think this because the stanger was critising the Tucks and that made her mad. If a person I didn't know was making fun of my family and trying to take someone that I cared about I would do the same thing if I got the chance.

From: Brian Grade 6 Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	To: anyone that wants to read this I think that this book is okay but my favorite part was when Mae hit the man in the yellow suit in the head and then he died from getting hit by the butt of the gun.

From: Kimmy Grade 6 Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	To: Ashley and Alex I think Winnie will drink the water because she really likes Jesse and I think she would do anything to marry him. I also think she would live her life happily if she lived with Jesse.

From: Shelby Grade 6 Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	To: Alyssa,Kerri,Kelsey,and Cynthia These chapters are really good. Winnie is really determined to help Mae get out of the gallows. It sounds like she will do anything to get her out of there!!! I can't wait to see what happens next!! This is turning out to be a really good book! Natalie Babbit is a very talented writer!

From: Paige and Gina Grade 6 Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	Reacurring images are the wheel imagery in the book the tucks tell winnie about the life cycle and the water cycle.The life cycle is the growing,changing and aging. The tucks have fallen of the life cycle their like rocks beside the road.

From: Michael Grade 6 Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	To: Anyone The prologue is one of my favorite parts in the story. I like when natalie babbite tells us a summary of what the story is about.

From: Kevin Grade 6 Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	To: any who likes the book I like this book and I cant wait till the movie comes out because, im going to see the movie with my class. I hope the movie is just as good as the book!

From: Melanie Grade 6 Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	I think Tuck Everlasting is a fun, exciting, adventurous, and romantic book. This book is so interesting you could read it all in one night like my mom did. (I wanted to but I diden't.) If you never read any of this book you should. Heres some of what happend: Winnie ran away from home becaus her mom and she met the Tucks, befrended them. Something bad happens later but I'm not going to tell you. I want you to read the book to find out.

From: Gabbey Grade 6 Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	To: Evryone I think Winnie is going to marry Jesse but isn't going to drink the water. In the end I think she dies.Also do you really think Winnie is going to get away with trading places with Mae.Please write back if you agree or disagree with me.

From: Melissa Grade 6 Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	To: Stephanie and Jaclyn stephanie, i disagree with you. Mae did not shoot the man in the yellow hat, she hit him hard with the back of the gun on his head. To everybody: who's your favorite character. Mines's jesse and winnie. do you think winnie's going to drink the water when she's seventeen or not.bye

From: AlyssaR. Grade 6 Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	To: Shelby,Kerri,Kelsey and all other people who no me I love Tuck Everlasting.IT is a really insteresting book.

From: Riss Grade 6 Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	To: Abbey and Morgan Hey! I really like the book. It's really cool. I can't wait to see the movie either! I don't think Winnie will drink the water from the spring because the way Angus, Mae, and Miles said it then she might just want to live her life and die. My favorite charactor in Tuck Everlasting is Jesse because he is really fun to be around. I hope you agree with my opiniom!

From: Brian Grade 6 Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	To: anyone that wants to read this I think that this book is okay but my favorite part was when Mae hit the man in the yellow suit in the head and then he died from getting hit by the butt of the gun.

From: Chris and mike Grade 6 Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	To: Kevin I think that Winnie shouldn't drink the water.Because it will throw her off the life cycle.

From: Alex Grade 6 Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	To: Chelsea I think this is one of the best books I have ever read and it is very mysterous. I think that Jesse and Winne will get married and run away together after winne drinks the spring.

From: Sally Grade 5 Mata Intermediate School Houston, TX	To: Stephen Hi! We are almost finished with the book. We know Winnie is breaking the law but we think she made the right decision because of the danger of people finding out about the spring. What do you think?

I do... I know that the movie didn't come out yet but do you think it's gonna be like the book?¿? I don't because the comercials look a lot different! Winnie looks like shes 17 already and shes supposed to be 10!! I can't wait to see the movie!! it looks so cool. ok back to the book. I wonder whats gonna happen to Winnie at the end of the book...? ¤~Write me back k?~¤

From: Sally Grade 5 Mata Intermediate School Houston, TX	To: Cindy We are almost finished with the book. It has gotten really exciting. Today we talked about the climax of the story. We think it was when Mae killed the stranger. What do you think?

From: Sally Grade 5 Mata Intermediate School Houston, TX	To: Mackenzie Hi! I hope everything turns out well for Mae and Winnie. I hope the Tucks get away safely and I am wondering if Winnie will drink the water Jesse gave her. I'll find out when we read tomorrow. Have you enjoyed the book?

From: Nikki Grade 6 Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	To: Brianne Hey! I didn't read your comment because i didn't see it but i'm still gonna talk anyway comment: Do you like the book?¿?

From: Shelby Grade 6 Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	To: Bridget B I see!

From: Sally Grade 5 Mata Intermediate School Houston, TX	To: Gesthika No, I haven't finished the book. We will finish tomorrow. I am anxious to find out what happens to the Tucks and Winnie. If the Fosters die, that means Winnie didn't drink the water. It is sad but I think she made the right decision. She had to do what she felt was the right thing to do. I bet Tuck was happy that she decided that way.

From: Kurt Grade 6 Chestnut Ridge Middle School Sewell, NJ	To: Angelina Thanks for writing me back. I really appreciate it. We have a lot of the same ideas. Talk to you in school.

From: Sally Grade 5 Mata Intermediate School Houston, TX	To: Matthew We are not finished with the book yet - thanks for asking! We will finish tomorrow. I hate for the book to be over - I have really enjoyed it and it has given me a lot to think about! Did you enjoy it!

From: Sally Grade 5 Mata Intermediate School Houston, TX	To: Mathieu Hi! No, I would not want to live forever. I believe there is a life cycle for a reason. I really enjoyed the book, though. Did you? My favorite character was Jesse. He had a good outlook on life and I like to think that he ended up doing something important in his life. Who was your favorite character?
