Bridge to Terabithia by Katherine Paterson Book Summary

The 40th anniversary edition of the classic Newbery Medal-winning title by beloved author Katherine Paterson, with brand-new bonus materials including an author's note by Katherine herself and a foreword by New York Times bestselling author Kate DiCamillo. 

Jess Aarons has been practicing all summer so he can be the fastest runner in the fifth grade. And he almost is, until the new girl in school, Leslie Burke, outpaces him. The two become fast friends and spend most days in the woods behind Leslie's house, where they invent an enchanted land called Terabithia. One morning, Leslie goes to Terabithia without Jess and a tragedy occurs. It will take the love of his family and the strength that Leslie has given him for Jess to be able to deal with his grief.

Bridge to Terabithia was also named an ALA Notable Children’s Book and has become a touchstone of children’s literature, as have many of Katherine Paterson’s other novels, including The Great Gilly Hopkins and Jacob Have I Loved.

Great book. Great book for kids

Good!!. It's a very good book but it is a little said

Loved it. I think this is a very age appropriate book for 5th graders. I think this book is a little sad but it ended up being a great story.

Amazing book, even as an adult. I have been reading this book for over 20 years, and it still makes me cry and feel for what the main character went through. This is a timeless classic for people of all ages

Bridge to Terabithia. Child's Review: I think this is a really good book, except for one sad part, which is a real tear jerker.

A Beautiful Story. The most beautiful story I’ve ever read.

Good book🙂. It’s good🙂

Love It!. I never read the book honestly, but I saw the movie and it made me cry. I always wondered why disney never made the 2nd part of bridge to therabithia because the movie is so good is amazing the way they even made it it's so sentimental and so beautiful, the people that banned this book maybe is haters because I never seen any kind of profanity or atheistm coming from this movie. I don't understand why people talk about that this movie promotes atheism, I really want to encourage Disney to make the 2nd part of this movie or the writer to write a second part of this book

I hate this book. This book is so confusing , the book I think everyone should read is , number the stars . By Lewis lowery . Okay fine this is

I like the movie more, but I still recommend this book. I really like it!! I mean, great book for 10+ (I’m 10) A good book for reluctant readers. I definitely recommend this book💙😉😎💙😉😎💙😉😎💙

Love it😭❤️. I love this book and I watched the movie and cried so I don't watch it very often. I feel so bad for Jess. I'm glad he eventually gets better though. This book is a great classic.❤️❤️😭😭

Bridge to Terabithia. This book was AMAZING!

Love it!. I watched the movie just yesterday! And it is SO close to being my favorite! I recommend this book to some! You get the feeling of bittersweet at the end! You just have to leave your mind wide open - Leslie!

Terrible. Everyone said that this was such an amazing book but I just did not like it at all. It is very boring and very slow. I would not recomend this book to anyone.

Love!. Timeless Classic!

Yeah. Beautifully complex, sad, humorous, and magical all woven together at the same time.

A classic. It's a great book! I really love all the characters! I love the way that they describe Leslie and Jess. And I love love love there dog P. T. he's a great character!

AWESOME BOOK AND MOVIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!. I loved this book! I read the book then watched the movie, they're both AMAZING!!

The state of hockey. Great book. One of the best books that I ever read . It is still pretty sad.

Owesome. Best book

Amazing. Kept me on the edge of my seat the whole time. Emotional at one point but an overall amazing storyline.

Bridge To Terebithia. One of my favorite childhood books.

Amazing. I love this book! I love Leslie’s imagination and it reminds me of how me and my friends play. A bit slow at times, and the end is SOOOOO sad, but overall great book.

awesome. so awesome i dident read it

Second favorite book. I loved everything about it. It did make me sad at the end, but that is life. I loved how they used there imagination to make a whole world. I LOVED it

A quick read but an amazing book!. Bridge to Terabithia is a great classic that I have never even heard of until my friend loaned it to me and told me to read it. I read it in one night and at the end it had me crying because Katherine Paterson makes it so you step into the character Jess and start to feel what he feels and when the tragic event happens you also feel sad. I have never read a book like this but you should now!Over all it deserves a great big 👍

Bridge to Terribithia. Great book, I recommend this book for anyone, great friendships and very sad.

Inappropriate book. Theirs bad words and the girl dies in the end!!how do people like this stuff!!😡😱😖😤😵👿🚑🚒🚓

My Childhood. This book as a child made my year also some really good memories and times.

Review BTB. I think this book is a good teaching of friendship and care we should all read this book so that we can learn something I recommend you should read this and then give a review on It😃😃😃😃😄😄😄

Review of Bridge to Terabithia - by Chloe S.. This book was astonishing. In the way the themes, life lessons, morals, are all proposed, is beyond my words. It is almost impossible to describe the goosebumps and excitement and tears I got from this book. I don’t want to spoil anything, but if you ever consider reading this, might I say the author is amazing with their work and you will love this piece of literature.

I loved the movie and the book. This book is amazing! My teacher has it in the bookshelf I read it all the time!! This book helped me go through grief about one of my grandmas passing away Kathrine Paterson This book is awesome

Achingly Beautiful. This book is just stunning. I read it when I was pretty young, maybe seven or eight, as I was an avid reader. And I loved it. I truly appreciated the beauty of the novel even at that age, though it is a good book to read with a parent as well. It's hard to describe it, but...Jess Aarons meets Leslie Burke. She introduces him to a whole world of fantasy—inside their heads. Using only their imagination, they create a whole kingdom in the woods. Warning: This novel will make you cry. And yet, it is so beautiful.

Nana. I would update have loved to give a better rating but when someone reads Washington the state of Washington comes to mind. If Washington DC had been used then there would have been NO confusion of the location of the story.

Dear author. Can you make a second book about Leslie I will give you the details she survived the drowning from the river and she was in a coma for 9 months and her parents or family members and her friend Jess didn't knew just hope you read this comment

I want a refund.. this book is so bad and not interesting it reminds me of my dark childhood. I don’t like the ending and it so expensive.

Awesome!!!! But sad🙁. Leslie was a good nice character but she ... CANT SAY BUT ... awesome BOOK!!!!The sadest page was 127

So good. I love it. It made me cry.

Awesome. Excellent story my favorite book also movie.

Pleasant surprise. I read this book for school (8th Grade) with low expectations. The book is amazing tho. It's a fairly quick read that I highly recommend.
