Bridge to Terabithia Written from the point of view of a 10 year-old boy, this is the story of Jess Aarons, a kid who is a loner, who loves to run and draw, the latter of which he keeps secret from everyone but his music teacher who understands his love of art. His parents are preoccupied with eking out a living and raising their five children—four girls and one boy. Jess feels left out in his own family and has no one with whom to share his dreams. Then Leslie Burke moves in next door and they become fast friends. Leslie is different from the other kids. She has imagination and an open mind. Together, she and Jess create Terabithia, a magical kingdom in the woods where the two of them reign as king and queen. But tragedy strikes and Jess must come to terms with the loss of his friend. Through it all, he learns to embrace what he has learned through his friendship with Leslie. Author: Katherine Paterson Code: 9780140312607 Tell A Friend |
