"The Best Book Madison Ever Read"

Charlotte's Web is a classic book. It is a book all ages can enjoy. It is one of my favorites because it tells a story about a spider who saves a pigs life. It is easy to read and is fun to read. It is a story that starts out as a nonfictional and turns into a fictional story. You will love it and so will your entire family. It is a good book to get because your family will be really interested in it. The main characters are Wilbur the pig, Charlotte the spider, Fern the girl who raises Wilbur, Templeton the hilarious rat and Mr Zuckerman the man who owns Wilbur the famous pig. You learn a lesson of friendship in the book.

"An influential novel"

E.B. White's classic novel was always one of my favorite books growing up. And today it remains one of my all-time favorites! I still can identify with Wilbur the charismatic pig, since I have been privileged enough to have many spiders as roommates. This book is probably especially meaningful to me, as an animal communicator, because it involves so many different animals trying to live and survive together on the farm.
This is a wonderful book for young children, growing up, because it teaches them about their own self-worth in a busy world. It also teaches us about the value of lives, how short they can be, and how much we can make of them. Charlotte saves Wilbur by spinning words in her webs, using her short life to benefit his life and the lives of others.

"A Great Classic..."

We bought these two books for our daughter's fourth grade class. They are currently reading this classic and they needed a few more copies. We almost always choose to buy from Amazon because we know the quality will be great.
I expect that most people who read this will know what happens at the end of the book, but in case you don't, I shall keep quiet. This last section marks the book out as a bit more mature than many children's books, dealing with concepts that some children can't handle until they get older. That aside, this is a wonderfully written children's story, taking place primarily in a farm yard and barn, telling of the characters with whom Wilbur, a pig, shares his home. The animals are all written so well, they seem like real people, and coupled with Garth Williams's excellent illustrations make for an enjoyable read for the 8-15 age bracket.
This story was recently turned into a film, and the book isn't that different from the film, however it does give nuances that only the printed page can bring, so is well worth reading even if you already know the story.
The story is so well-written it has won awards, and this small sample of prose shows just how good E.B. White is: "The Autumn days will shorten and grow cold. The leaves will shake loose from the trees and fall. Christmas will come, then the snows of winter. You will live to enjoy the beauty of the frozen world". It's just a beautiful piece of writing, showing that you don't have to talk down to children for them to enjoy books.
