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.
