This book is so full of great imagination considering the Fact people, like Fern's mother doesn't believe animals can talk but fern does. So surprising what children think and love! Who wouldn't love to read a Classical book. E.B White is a great Author for Children!

i love this book

This book is really good. Fern shows love for Wilbur, that turns into love for Henry. But Charlotte is always and forever Wilbur's! And so are Joy, Nellie and Aranea! This book is really awesome!

This looks like a really cool book!

SPOILERS!This book teaches all the skills a budding writer needs to know. In the beginning, Fern saves Wilbur's life when her Father was going to kill Wilbur just because he was the runt. He is taken to Mr. Zuckerman's farm and soon develops a strong bond with a lovely spider named Charlotte. One day, Charlotte neatly displays the words "Some Pig" into her web. This makes Wilbur famous. Charlotte decides to weave more words into her web. With the help of Templeton, a rat with a big appetite, she weaves more words into her web. These are the words: "Terrific" and "Humble". Shortly after Wilbur became famous, she laid 514 eggs into her egg sac. Later Charlotte starts to feel her age. Then, she dies. Wilbur takes care of her children but they will never replace Charlotte.
