Winnie Foster meets the Tuck family who have drunk from a spring in Foster Woods. The Tucks now have eternal life, and they never age. They watch life go by, but they are stuck. They care for Winnie and protect her, but an unscrupulous man wants her family's land, and tells Winnie's parents that she was kidnapped by the Tucks. When Mae Tuck gets arrested, Winnie has to make a decision. 
This is a story of lasting friendship and doing the right thing. 
A classic.

I remember really liking this book when I was in grade school. I wish it was as whimsical now as it was then.

beautifully written and simple. will use in class. no need to complicate the story (like the film version). just an honest coming of age, finding yourself novel.
