Age has its despairs, yet without its dimension, our lives lose their shape: A timeless life, without growth or change, would be drearier than the day is long. That’s the profound truth that illuminates this extraordinary fable, in which a young girl named Winnie finds herself catapulted into great adventure by her discovery of a potion more powerful than time. This enchanting novel for young people is filled with enough wit, suspense, and imagination to inform the hearts and minds of elders, too. It is a beautiful, luminous, and very wise tale conjured by a storytelling sorceress.

I read this book but I don't agree that everlasting life would become dull and unrewarding. I fully believe that, given enough time, a number of societal ills could be conquered. That said, it's very well written and I enjoyed the plot.

The first children's book I remember my son reading that made him both sad and glad he read it at the same time. Beautifully written.

A long time since I've read this, but it was definitely worth it.

Loved this book. We all wish for everlasting life at some point, but this brings why we really don’t want it.

One of my favorites! I got to teach this book my first year teaching and I loved it just as much as when I read it the first time.
