Tuck Everlasting by Natalie Babbitt
Buy the Book
Blessed with—or doomed to—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 of 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.
A brand-new introduction from Gregory Maguire, the author of Wicked, and additional bonus materials make this special edition of Natalie Babbitt's Tuck Everlasting a must-have for lovers of the book and a great way to introduce a new generation to a classic.

I first read Tuck Everlasting in my fifth grade classroom. It's one of those books that's stuck around through the generations for a reason--namely, that it's flipping fantastic, and mostly because the main question posed in it is one that will resonate forever (heh):
What if you could live forever?
