so may not appreciate it, but for anyone with a free afternoon, try this story. A lot of kids these days are forced to read these on the torturesome summer reading lists etc. Tuck Everlasting holds more power than it looks like it does. So, in conclusion, Tuck Everlasting is a story that will stay with me forever, because it has touched my life. It made me cry just watching the previews, because it looks beautifully done.
