Tuck Everlasting
By: Natalie Babbitt
The Wheel theory is an excellent concept for Winnie to understand. Tuck thinks its important to age, and Its a wonderful thing to age and die, and it is just natural. It's just how life works. Tuck tells Winnie its good to grow and wants Winnie to grow older and age, and that she should not stay the same age forever.

One time I felt homesick was when I went to a sleepover. I did not feel well at all and I had a huge headache and I thought I would wake up with a scorching hot fever. But iIt turned out when I woke up that I was fine and I had a fun night, but I guess its part of life to get homesick,
There has been lots of mood shown in this chapter. Winnie changed from scared and worried, to happy and cheerful that in a way she is free. She was supposed to run away today, but by accident she met the Tucks and thought of it as running away, but it someone, which is actually her cup of tea because she dd not want to run away alone.
In chapter 6, Winnie was thrown into a whole bunch of drama with the Tucks. They had explained that the Tucks did live forever, just by drinking from a little spout of water in the ground. If I were Winnie, I would probably be ok with this situation, as soon as everything was explained. But if I was myself in this situation, I would keep screaming my head off because I might think these people are lying to me and would try to kill me.
If a stranger were to walk up to me, I can't imagine what would go on in my mind. I would scream for help, and try to run far away as fast as I can. To me, strangers are kind of scary. Unlike the past a long time ago, kids could walk on the streets and play games each other, but now-a-days, some parents are paranoid to let their kids out after all the stories about kidnapping and everything. I do not like going up to strangers that much, but I guess one day I will have to learn.

Smiley Town, Nj 07508 May 12th, 2016 Dear Kyra, My life so far is going great. My class came in 3rd place overall in dance. Our last class also, has come to an end. Our recital is next week. I am so excited and I know I am gonna kill it on stage. I hope you will get to see me perform my other dance besides the class both of us are in. In school, we are learning something new everyday, and it is so exciting! Today in math we were going over the lesson, and in science we finished coloring. We also took a test in Social studies, and I hope I will do ok! Please write back! Love, Christina In chapter 2 of Tuck Everlasting, Winnie Foster had a conversation with a tiny little toad stopping by her house. She was talking with the toad about running away, and definitely thought she would do it the next day, early in the morning, while everyone's still sleeping. I think that this symbolizes that Winnie is a little annoyed with her family, and wants to be alone all the time but meanwhile her family is always hunched over her back. I don't think she is wrong, wanting some space, but I think she is wrong running away. I also don't think she realizes if she does run away, she has no clue what is over her head.
