I remember the very end of The Search for Delicious and nothing much else about the book at all. Elementary school aged me liked the ending of that book much better than I did the ending of Tuck Everlasting which was very nearly a book-meets-wall moment because I felt utterly betrayed. I don't think that Tuck Everlasting really works well when you're in third or fourth grade because most kids that age are missing a couple of foundational ideas to make the ending seem right. (Looking back, I'm pretty sure it is right. I just still DNW it based on how angry I was then.)
