Eternal life -- to stay at the same age forever, is it a blessing or a curse? Ah, to avoid the wrinkles and pains of old age and dying...and yet... what would it be like to live forever at the same age?

Here's an amazing, enlightening book that will not be forgotten. A ten-year-old name Winnie finds out about an amazing secret from a boy named Tuck, and then is followed by a stranger who has his eyes on finding out the secret from the magic spring... Thought-provoking and well told, serious but with light humor, don't miss out on this one!

An ALA notable book.
