Tuck Everlasting
If you've ever wished you could live forever, this original novel might leave you questioning that wish! When Winnie decides to run away from her overbearing family and her spotless, sterile house, she has no idea she's about to meet a family that accidentally became immortal. No sooner does she stumble on one of the sons (and a handsome one, too) than she is scooped up by the rest of the family and hustled away so they can convince her to keep their horrible secret - and protect the spring that produces this "magic" water from greedy opportunists. When she hears their story - the story of the strange spring, how none of them have aged for a hundred years, and how their immortality is more a curse than a blessing for the poor family, she wants to do everything she can to help them. Unfortunately, a stranger has caught a whiff of the mystery and will do anything to get possession of the woods so he can market this amazing immortality elixir. How can Winnie and the Tuck family protect their secret without everyone in the village finding out? - Jess
From Newbery Honor and E. B. White Award–winning author Natalie Babbitt, Tuck Everlasting is a spellbinding modern-day masterpiece about immortality, friendship, and growing up that’s sure to be an all-time favorite for every generation.
Is eternal life a blessing or a curse? That is what young Winnie Foster must decide when she discovers a spring on her family’s property whose waters grant immortality. Members of the Tuck family, having drunk from the spring, tell Winnie of their experiences watching life go by and never growing older. But then Winnie must decide whether or not to keep the Tucks’ secret—and whether or not to join them on their never-ending journey.
A staple on home bookshelves and in classrooms and libraries, Tuck Everlasting is a timeless story that has captivated readers of all ages for almost half a century.
The title sums up this series - twenty-four workbooks, each focusing on a specific skill. This series would be a great reinforcement and test prep for core math content, or serve as extra practice for the student having difficulty. They provide from 24 to 32 pages for each targeted skill and are somewhat like the "Key To" series, but for younger kids. Students will progress from one to three digit addition and subtraction in level C to multi-step word problems in level F. An 8-page answer key provides pretests and post tests so you can gauge your student's progress. These tests are reproducible for classroom or family use. It also provides answers to the pretest, post, test and workbook pages. Manipulatives for suggested use are base-ten blocks, fraction strips, a variety of measuring devices, and centimeter cubes. They also tell you how you can make your own fractions strips and a few ways you can use the tools. You can't go wrong with extra practice at this price. ~ Donna
