 * Prologue** : If i could live forever at this age i would not like to because you can not do what you want to do and have to listen to other people even though you will be young forever and wont get any pimpals you will have to move from one place to another because people will get curious and will say stuff like freak to me and wont belive you if you say something. People will always treat you like a baby for the rest of your life. There is an age i wont to be it is 20 i want to be 20 forever because i could be the youngest billionare and that is the age when you can watch the scarriest movies or drive a car.


 * Chapter 1**: In the book Babbit tells us lots about the views in the book. She discribed about the road that lead to Treegap, how it used to be for the cows to trot and relaxe, and it tells how the road wandered along in curves and easy angles that swayed off and up in a pleasant tangent to the top of a small hill, ambled down again between fringes of bee-hung clover, and then cut sidewise across a meadow. She also tells that now the road belongs to the people instend of the cows. It discribes about the "touch me not" cottach and how it 's saying "move on we don't want you hear.". She also discribes about the worms not tring to trespass the thin crust over the gates of the "touch me not' cottach.

Chapter 2 :about the summer and it tells some things about the boys and some about the house.


 * Chapter 3**: On Augusts hot summer day Winnie sits near a toat and tells that she is going to run away


 * Chapter 4**: At night Winnie is out-side when she meets a stranger. He asked her how long she lived here. Then Winnies grandmother comes out and they hear the soun of music.


 * Chapter 5:** Jesse doesn't let Winnie foster drink the water because if she does she will have to live forever and look like she just turned 10. I would not let her drink it because who wants to live forever at the age of ten i would not. You can't drive drink coffe and otther things.

2. I think that Winnie did not shout or wave her hands because she did not want the Tuck family to get in trouble. I would have done the same thing because i don't want to cause a big commotion.
 * Chapter** **6:** 1. No there was no cold water falling on her backbone. Babbit is trying to say that her backbone felt watery and cold. 1 quote : The top of her ceeks were bright pink with sunburn, her nose a vivid, comic red. (page 46). 2 quote: And it was cool, blessedly cool and green. (page 47).


 * Chapter 7:** I think Jesse means that the water that makes you live forever was for the world. I think the "plan" is how the "water" was ment to be used. But the plan didn't work and they hid the "water" but made the person who drank it live forever.


 * Chapter 8:** At the end of the chapter someone that Winnie knows heard the sereret and its the man in the yellow suit. The character in the book causes tension and suspense by...
 * 1) Asking the people (Winnie and her grandmother) if they know anyone that lived forever,
 * 2) We don't know hardly anything about him.


 * Chapter 9 and Ten:** Babbit describes the Tuck's home mesy but very comptfortable.She describes Winnies house like it so neatnot even one dust inside but my house is in the middle but feels like home. Mae isn't certain whether or not the living forever part of the spring water on her family are a blessing or a curse but I think it is curse because if you were living forver in the world during where the book is held they would think that they sold there sole to the devil and will have to be burned. But now its not so bad exept of you becoming a freak and no one will want to be your friend so you will be lonley and will commite suaside.


 * Chapter 11 and 12:** Tuck really hates being able to live forever and wants to die. when you die someone else is born so if you dont die that baby cant be born so its not a will. Jessie doesn't really care but i think Miles hates it because his wife left him. And Mae she somtimes forgets what happen to them.


 * Chapter 14:** Jessie is sugesting to Winnie that they can get married and they dont have a divorce.I think her answer will be yes because in the beginning of the book she liked him. I would say no because i do not want to live forever.

him. He said in the book that he would use Winnie for something like someone that does something to make the people want to buy the water. I bet he would make her cut her self and since she cant die he will think the people will watch that and say something like " look she cut her self and didnt die cool i want one to" or the would make their loved one drink the water so they dont have to lose they loved one and they would want to have that water for many reasons and thats what the yellow suite man knows. The people will give the money for that water. He does not care about the families but all he cares about is their money. The constables reaction to the dude in the Yellow suite is mustirious because in the chapter the yellow suite guy is eager to get to the tucks and when the man said that the Fosters sold their wood to him it was bit of a suprise because the Fosters would never sell their would to a friend or foe.
 * Chapter 15 and 16:** The man in the yellow suite is a mean and selfish man that will do anything to be rich and powerful. He doesnt care for anyone but


 * Chapter 17 and 18:** Miles didnt take his family to the spring. I would not have taken my family to the spring because dying is the same as being born its part of the life cycle.


 * Chapter 19 and 20:** No i dont agree because i dont think that only some special people should get to drink it because who would want to live forever. If i was in his shoes I would feel shock that someone i married and knew for a long time would do something you could never imagine

that it would come after me.
 * Chapter 21:** I killed a moth once and thought how sad its family would be for it not to go home and i kept thinking that i dissapornted the moth family and


 * Chapter 22:** I think pa does not want winnie to help because she might get hurt. I think that she sould not go because then people will think she is helping a muderer.


 * Chapter 23 and 24:** The quote means that stone walls dont make a prisons room and iron bars dont too. THe thought came into winnies head when Winnie looked though the window and saw a light glow faintly she peered at it and looked at the blackness of the bars with the dim gold of the light between.


 * Chapter 25 and Epilogue:** I would have not drank the water because i dont want people calling me a freak. At first i thought living forever would be fun and great because the someone you love wont die but when the tucks expained to me about living forver I changed my mind.
