Well, that depends on who you're asking. Every person could have a different opinion on your question. I, personally, liked the whole book. But if you asked someone else, they could name a different part of the book. What I consider important in Tuck Everlasting is (Note: these events are from the book. Not from the movie, since the book and movie and VERY different):
-The time where Winnie talks about wanting to run away, runs into the tucks, and they kidnap her, soon tell her their secret (with the man in the yellow suit eavesdropping).
- The man in the yellow suit negotiates with Winne's family that he will bring Winnie back if they give him his woods, cottage, and especially the spring.
-Mae kills the man in the yellow suit. Mae is taken to jail. Winnie is brought back home. Winnie feels like a new person, she is more mature.
-Winnie and the tucks go get Mae, and Winnie trades places with Mae in jail. Winnie is caught soon after, and is taken home. In the end Winnie gives her spring water (The water Jesse gave her for when she turns 17 so she cant drive it to be immortal and marry him) to the toad. The toad is safe forever.
These are just what I think are the most important events. Of course, everyone has their own opinion. There isn't one right answer.

What is problem the rising action and the resolution for the book Tuck Everlasting?
The rising action is the part of the novel that leads to the point where the book is most exciting, if you will. Forgive me if I'm being vague, because it has been a while since I've read Tuck Everlasting. However I do remember that Mae kills the guy who's searching for the spring water (she hits him in the head with her rifle, right)? That would be the climax. The rising action would probably be Winnie's kidnapping and the time she spends at the Tuck family home. I would consider that the rising action because her kidnapping (and the strange man's witnessing of the crime) leads to him going to the Tuck family home with the constable and getting killed. Then the falling action would be the jailbreak of the Tucks, and the departure of the family, and the conclusion would be the last chapter about the Tucks going back into the now modernized town.
What is the moral of Tuck Everlasting?
There are several things to gain from Tuck Everlasting. One is that the whole idea of the "circle of life" is important and that dying is just a much a part of living. Death is a certainty and even though the Tucks offer Winnie a way out of that circle (immortality from drinking from the spring) it is best not to mess with the natural order of things. Another thing that can be learned from this is that greed can get the best of people. The man in the yellow suit is greedy and tries to get the spring for himself, but because of this greed he suffers his fate at the end. On the topic of themes there are many such as independence (Winnie wanting freedom), Order vs. Disorder (natural order of life vs. Tucks and their immortality) as well as the general topic of death. Death is a touchy subject that can be taught with this book in a way that will help adolescents understand the idea of death and its inevitability.
