Wilbur, the pig, is desolate when he discovers that he is destined to be the farmer's Christmas dinner until his spider friend, Charlotte, decides to help him. - Findaway World Llc
This Newbery Honor Book by E. B. White, author of Stuart Little and The Trumpet of the Swan, is a classic of childrenâs literature that is âjust about perfect.â
Some Pig. Humble. Radiant. These are the words in Charlotteâs Web, high up in Zuckermanâs barn. Charlotteâs spiderweb tells of her feelings for a little pig named Wilbur, who simply wants a friend. They also express the love of a girl named Fern, who saved Wilburâs life when he was born the runt of his litter.
E. B. Whiteâs beloved book is a tender novel of friendship, love, life, and death that will continue to be enjoyed by generations to come.
âWhat the book is about is friendship on earth, affection and protection, adventure and miracle, life and death, trust and treachery, pleasure and pain, and the passing of time. As a piece of work it is just about perfect, and just about magical in the way it is done.ââEudora Welty, The New York Times Book Review
