Good Movie
Mainly it was the characters especialy AnnaSophia Robb (Leslie Burke)that i liked most about the movie The Characters i thought were all likable and, and the friendship between Leslie and Jess felt real,. The Movie looked very good too, the river the two kids crossed was very tranquil looking with the sun coming down on it and the CGI was used very sparingly which was nice, Other reviewers have also pointed out that the movie was advertised as though it were a special effects laiden fantasy film like the "The Adventures of Narnia" or somthing like that whcih was,nt the case.
Definetly a movie to see, but keep a few tissues handy

Bridge to Terabithia
by Katherine Paterson
Review by Katie Brothers and Megan Worley


Katherine Paterson, the author of The Bridge to Terabithia made us feel as if we were actually in Lovettsville, Virginia. (This location was chosen because Paterson actually taught there for some time.) The descriptive language that Paterson uses envelops you into the story. She continues to keep the reader hooked by using her vivid imagination and ability with words. We felt as if we were apart of the characters life. For example, Jess is described as a sensitive, all American boy who loves to run and wear "no shoes because the bottoms of his feet were by now as tough as worn out sneakers."

The Bridge to Terabithia is filled with exciting characters. We loved how the author uses animated words to describe Jess and Leslie. These two ambitious fifth grade students at Lark Creek Elementary School love using their imaginations to take them on adventures. There times together created memories that will never cease.
Predicting what the kids were going to do next really kept us intrigued. We couldn't put the book down! Our imaginations were running away with us as we were anticipating was what to come.

This book carries the story line of two young adventurous children who meet and become the best of friends. They are the support system for each other with school and with life. This book profiles what the life of young children was like in the 1970's. It takes you through full school days and events through the eyes of the children in this time. Outside of school the imaginations of Jess and Leslie continue to run wild! They cross a creek most every day and transform into the king and queen of "Terabithia", an imaginary city created in their exploring minds.

This book shows the importance of childhood friendships and how they impact the life of the children in this book. Also, the book addresses the impact school has on the social lives of children. Jess and Leslie gained trust in one another that they did not have with anyone else.

The town of Lovettsville is much like the town we live in here, Cullowhee. It is a small, rural, and very tight knit community where everyone knows everyone, outsiders are awkwardly welcomed, and people rely on each other as a way of life. This is another aspect of the book that kept us intrigued the entire time.

We loved the writing style of the book! It really captivated our interests and imaginations. When it wasn't the characters voices talking in the story, we imagined a "Mr. Rogers" kind of guy reading the story to us. The dialect of the book was very realistic and comforting to us as the readers.

The genre of this book is adventure for children and young adults. The story line can be suitable for children, but the use of language throughout the book would prove to be a good study for young adults. This is a Newberry Medal Award Winning Book that can be described as brilliant, and a true classic in children's literature.

To truly understand our perspective of the book and how wonderful it is you have to read it for yourself!
