This has been favorite of mine since I was a young girl. I remember my 5th grade teacher reading it aloud to our class. 
 Aug 22: Just listened to the audio book on a road trip and loved it. This is still a favorite book because I fell in love with the characters and the story. After all these years, I still want Winnie to drink the water and wait for Jesse. Maybe that's why I loved the Twilight series so much - because it's a similiar plot AND Bella does get to be with her immortal love! But, all-in-all, I will always love Tuck Everlasting!
