Tuck Everlasting is a story about a family named the Tuck’s. The Tuck’s live in a place called the Treegap. It’s a quiet, peaceful, and wonderful place. There are few more houses then rural places. The Treegap is a small little town. Also though there is this girl that lives in a rural farm land and her name is Winnie Foster. Where Winnie lives there aren’t many houses nearby. Further on in Tuck Everlasting the Tuck’s picked up Winnie because they needed her for some reason. Winnie wasn’t very sure who they were or what they wanted from her. She figured though that they weren’t bad people because there were two children in car also. The two children in the car were Miles and Jesse.

They told her that they wouldn’t do any harm to her at all. Winnie was then sure that it would be alright. They even told her that they were going to drop her off back home tomorrow. Once they all arrived Mr.Tuck or Angus (father) walked up to Mae Tuck (mother) and asked if they got the girl (meaning Winnie). Mae wasn’t off the horse when he asked but when she did get off she said there she is. Winnie was a bit afraid and shy of Angus. He was kind of confused but then he helped Winnie off the horse. Miles and Jesse on the other hand though ran right towards the pond for a swim.

Miles and Jesse were jumping and splashing in the water. Mae and Angus were standing in the same spot they have been when they got back, just talking about Winnie. Winnie though wasn’t very sure what she would have to do but she also just stood there listening to the two of them speak to each other. Even though Mae told Winnie that they wouldn’t do anything to criticize her or hurt her she continued to have doughts.
