The Bridge to Terabithia is a realistic fiction book. I think it is for 4th grade and above. It won the John Newberry Medal in 1978. The book tells the story of how two very different children become friends. So they imagine a world where they both can escape to get away from everything else. It was an exciting book and I found it to be very interesting. The book could be used to discuss how sometimes young children can feel like outsiders compared to their classmates. There could be a lesson on how to deal with hardship because in the book Jess deals with a serious hardship. I think that the book could generate a very interesting discussion.
