Myop enjoys her days on the farm as she plays with animals, gathers flowers, and marvels at the beauty summer brings. Curiosity and a sense of adventure drives Myop to explore on her own: “Today she made her own path, bouncing this way and that way, vaguely keeping an eye out for snakes.” It is then that she stumbles into the now decapitated remains of a dead man, and the world has suddenly changed for her. Alice Walker wrote, “Myop laid down her flowers. And the summer was over.” She left the flowers she had gathered, and the world was no longer as beautiful a place as she had once thought. At the end of the story summer was over resembling how Myop has left her innocence behind. There wasn't fear, only surprise, and a new sense of

My claim is true because When you truly love someone and their secret is in trouble you will go through anything to save it. In the text Winnie says “...I want to help. I have to help. If it wasn’t for me then their wouldn’t be any trouble in the first place.” (Page 115) This shows that she truly does care about the Tucks and their secrets.

Tonight he wouldn’t get much sleep. He hugged his arms to his chest and let his teeth chatter. He hadn’t been this cold since he had nearly drowned trying to escape more than a year ago. “It’s warmer in the cabin if you want.” Called Peter’s hesitant voice.”

The movie Beasts of the Southern Wild takes place in a community called the bathtub, a piece of land located on the back side of the levee on the Mississippi river. The main character, Hush puppy, is a little girl who lives by herself but she spends her time with her father. Throughout the movie, there are many talks about the mother that is in not in the picture. The father said that the mother ran away from the community to live a better life because she did not want to experience the harsh conditions that happen when the storm comes. No matter the situation, Hush Puppy always says “The entire universe depends on everything fitting just right.” Although the movie has many controversial situations, the love of the tight knit community defeats all of the obstacles thrown their way.

“So how did you sleep?” I asked. “Like babies.” Adams said. “You ready?” I asked.

Once we get the horses in Rowans stable and get them brushed off and fed we head inside. Rowan offers us food and drinks but I give my apologies and ask where I am supposed to sleep. When he shows me where I am to sleep I bid him goodnight and fall into a deep slumber that I have missed greatly and will come to miss in the near future.

As the play goes on Winnie and Jesse get really close as friends. Jesse took her to the parade and played games and decided they were going to become friends and travel the world together. Jesse and Winnie acted as if they were “partners in crime”. They leave the fair and go explore and ended up sitting on top of the Treegap water tower. This is where they have a conversation and Jesse convinces Winnie to wait and drink the water when she turns seventeen. The reason Jesse wanted her to wait was so they could get married and they would both be the same age for the rest of their lives. The man in the Yellow Suit was walking in the forest and overheard Jesses speech and decides he is going to follow the Tucks wherever they went to find out the secret and where they were getting this water from.

Theta had been curled up on the couch for maybe 30 minutes now, fast asleep. The weather conditions were fine, last he checked, so everything was fine, or so he thought...

“We should sleep,” Keith murmurs, and Lance nods in agreement, gently pulling him down to rest against the blankets on the floor. He curls against Keith’s stomach, the other boy’s arms thrown around his waist protectively. Nuzzling into his neck, Keith lets out a tender, satisfied sigh before Lance’s gentle hums lull him to sleep, Lance not far behind.

Jesse and Winnie share a secretive loving relationship. They hint of this love affair with statements like “But the thing is, you knowing about the water already… then you could go and drink some, and then you could go away with me!” as said by Jesse Tuck in chapter 14. Although Winnie Foster is younger than Jesse it's easy to feel the bond between each of the characters and want it to continue to grow. Some readers disagree that Tuck Everlasting has a good ending to the book and say that it's not the ending readers want.

Tuck Everlasting is the story about the young girl of age eleven named Winnie Foster, her family is wealthy and owned the woods, where there is a magic spring. One morning, Winnie ran away from her home because of her domineering mother. She explores the woods, where she met a boy named Jesse Tuck he was drinking water from the spring and tells her its secret, the spring gives eternal life. Winnie gets kidnapped by Jesse’s brother Miles because he’s afraid she will tell the secret. Jesse and his family told Winnie all about the spring’s power. While Winnie was in the woods, a man in a yellow suit befriends Winnie’s family in order to steal the woods where the spring was. He spied the Tucks in the woods and he had desires on the

“No promises,” he said as the two kids began to squeal and smiles began to break out. “I just think that it would be a good time to reassess things. A lot would still depend on how Johnny is after he wakes up.”

‘Now, you dear good old Ratty,’ said Toad imploringly, ‘don’t begin to talking in that stiff and sniffy sort of way, because you know you’ve got to come. I can’t possibly manage without you, so please consider it settled and don’t argue – it’s the one thing I can’t stand. You surely don’t mean to stick to your dull fusty old river all your life, and just live in a hole in a bank, and boat? I want to show you the world! I’m going to make an animal out of you, my boy!’
