    In the novel Tuck Everlasting by Natalie Babbit, a girl named Winnie meets the Tuck family and she must decide whether or not she should drink from the magic spring and live forever. I believe that Winnie should not drink from the spring for many reasons. First of all, if she drinks from the spring and lives eternally, she will have to watch as all of her friends and family die as they age. Additionally, if she lives forever her life will lose its purpose. Also, if she doesn’t age, people will get suspicious of her and they will get scared and desert her. Finally, after she drinks from the spring she will stop growing and changing, like it says on page 63 “Left behind. And everywhere around us things is moving, growing, and changing”.…
