TUCK EVERLASTING is an ALA Notable book, and deservedly so. It just sucks you right in. And . . . about the toad . . . No, I'd better not say . . .
From back cover: Doomed to---or blessed with---eternal life after drinking from a magic spring, the Tuck family wanders about trying to live as inconspicuously and comfortably as they can. When ten-year-old Winnie Foster stumbles on their secret, the Tucks take her home and explain why living forever at one age is less a blessing than it might seem. Complications arise when Winnie is followed by a stranger who wants to market the spring water for a fortune.
