Bridge to Terabithia
In my opinion, the book “Bridge to Terabithia” is a great book. This is because I like how Jesse and Leslie stand up to bullies in the story like Janice Avery. I also like how Jess works for what he wants. For example, he wanted to be the fastest runner in his fifth grade so he forced himself to run every morning. Another thing I like about this story is how Jess and Leslie create Terabithia and use their imagination.
If you are looking for a sad but eventful and fun story, Bridge to Terabithia is a great book to read. Even though Leslie dies, it adds something different to the book compared to other books where everything ends up happy. For Jess, the author portrays real life emotions and actions a person would have if a close friend died. For example, when Leslie dies, it is easy to see that Jess goes through the 5 stages of grief. The author of “Bridge to Terabithia” is Katherine Paterson who wrote this book in Oct. 21, 1977.
