Paterson, K. (1972). Bridge to Terabithia. NY: Crown.


This story truly reaches deep in the heart. As you read the story you envision the relationship that is being developed among Leslie and Jess. The setting of the story, particularly, Terabithia, becomes one of the most centralized place where their friendship begins to evolve. It is there where Jess can become the person he wishes to be, where there is no ridiculing or “expectations” set by society. Furthermore, Terabithia becomes a world of innocence.  Unfortunately, as the story progresses, Terabithia becomes more than just the innocent world that was once known. It becomes a memory for Jess that he will never forget.
