I have to this book at 3 because it was hard for me to understand all the things Winnie went through she was getting followed by this man in the yellow suit because he was after her money so she ran away from home because her life was control by her parents so she saw this man drink from the spring water and she wanted to drink it but she couldn't cause he told her not to drink it so she went to the tucks house, the tucks house was very oppressive the man in the yellow suit followed her and may tuck kill him and then she went to the jailhouse and the replace Winnie as may tuck 20 years later they saw her gravestone

. This is about a 10-11 year old girl named Winnie, who wants to run away. So, she wanders off into the family's wood, where she ends up to a place where she sees a teenage boy, drinking water. His name is Jesse. He says she shouldn't drink the water, and manages to pull her away. We later find out that the water is like a youth fountain, but in this case makes you live forever. Jesse drank it because he already drank it before with his family. Tuck regrets drinking it, and Jesse is delighted. Winnie gets kidnapped by them in a friendly way, and then his mom, Mae, and his brother, Miles, come with a horse and take her back to their small cottage. Before all of this, a strange man who is called, "The Man in the Yellow Suit", is very suspicious around them, and of course that is where all the trouble occurs. The man follows them home, and steals their horse. The Man in The Yellow Suit takes Winnie. Then Mae does something to save her. This is a really good book. I would probably rate it 4.5 stars out of 5. Read it,and recommend it to any one who wants to read stories with a plot twist.

This is a great book! It's about a family who drinks water from a spring and they never aged! It's cool!

Before all of this, a strange man who is called, "The Man in the Yellow Suit", is very suspicious around them, and of course that is where all the trouble occurs. The man follows them home, and steals their horse. Some other crazy things happen, but I won't spoil the whole book, even though I spoiled already like half of it. Really good book. I would probably rate it 4.5 stars out of 5. Read it.(No, I don't speak Spanish)

This book is about a family that drank water from a spring. That family never aged and never died. It is an amazing book and I'm not going to give any more away.
