Tuck 6-10

What was the "strangest story that Winnie had ever heard" when the Tucks told her in Chapter 7?

• A story about how the Tucks had came from New York City 96 years ago and how they had heard music from elves that drew them to a magical tree that had sap all over it that made them immortal when they touched it. The tree sap was evil however and when they became immortal it made them dangerous criminals as well.

• A story about how the Man in the Yellow Suit had been chasing them all over the country for 109 years and they finally escaped him when they hid in a small village called Tree House Town. They later found out that this town was magical and everyone that lived there was immortal.

• A story about how the Tucks had come from a long way to the east, looking for a place to settle. They had thought that they would start a farm when they came to the end of the trees in the forest, but the trees never seemed to end. They came to a place with a tree with knobby roots and a spring and they all took a drink, even the horse.
