I cannot quite articulate the impact I know this book will have on my perspective for years to come. I would 100% recommend this to everyone I know, especially anyone struggling through difficult seasons. The acceptance speech at the end…

This book was a great read for me because I enjoyed the relationship between the two children and how it strengthens over time. This book also teaches us to value our friendships which I think is a very valuable lesson. I like how the…

i read this book as part of a 52 books in 52 weeks reading challenge. I used the 2023 reading challing prompt read a Newbery Medal winner. It is also on listopia's 300 books everyone should read once list. It made me cry, of course. This…

I’m not your sure how this classic escaped my stronghold on reading until now; wow. Though I knew it was coming, I didn’t expect to have wet eyes but Katherine Paterson’s prose is simple, lovely and so relatable that it was impossible not…

My favourite book of all time. Those who rated it depressing don't understand the book obviously. I've read this book 4 times so far and cried each time. I deeply relate with Jesse, the main character, from his family, to social life, etc.…

While the themes hold up true today, it's ultimately depressing and dated.

I like the main charecters in the book and how the face themselves and fight there fears together. They lead to a world of wonders and imagination.They grow close friendship and have this magical little home called Terabithia. It was an…

Bridge to Terabithia is a solemn read, but a solid one at that. The story centers around Jess, and his neighbor Leslie, as they compete in foot races but grow close as friends. making a fantastical play area they dubbed "Terabithia."…

This book left me in tears, but I will never regret reading the book. Even though I am 13 and only read this for school, I still loved it. I am usually into supernatural fiction and romance, so I didn't think this book was right for me.…

A very good book dealing with friendship, loss, adjustment, and moving forward with a thread of imagination throughout the entire book.

Bridge to teribithia was a book that I read in grade five. That book remained one of my favourites that entire year. Re-reading it now four years later was like stepping back into my past mind. The book is so well written and the emotions…

So well written. The author captures each of the character's voices in an understated but powerful way. Sad, but in a good way, if that is possible.

I read this for the "A Childhood Favorite" part of my 2018 reading challenge. It certainly sucked me in right away, then left me feeling lost and confused at the end. I was not expecting it to be so sad.

In 1977, when this book was published, I was 10 years old - the same age as Jess and Leslie in the book. And if I had read the book that year, I think I would have found a lot in common with Jess - the inability to fit in, the interest in…

Bridge to Terabithia is a book you can read over, and over, and over again, without ever getting tired of it. I remember the first time I read this, which was a few years ago, partly because I had to do a book report and couldn't find…

So beautiful. the only movie that ever made all 5 members of my family cry. It is, most of all, about imagination, and friendship. Dare you to sit down with the kids and make a night of it.

So I read this book for the first time when I was nine. And I cried and cried and cried. And now I'm twelve- I know, I'm still not that big (I'm actually still really young :( ), but I still cry and cry and cry every time I read this…

Bridge to Terabithia is one of my childhood favorite books. I read this back in my elementary school years. I borrowed it again to bring back those memories I had when I was a kid. It's a story about friendship and the bumps along the way…
