I read this with my 6 year old daughter. Our favorite part is when Charlotte wants Wilber (the pig) to run around to see if he looks "radient". After several silly instructions, she tells him to do a half-twist with a back flip - which he did. My daughter still laughs about that! A very sweet book to read with your children.

Wilbur was lovingly raised by a girl named Fern. But now he's a barn pig. He's bored and lonely until he meets Charlotte, a beautiful grey spider who also lives in the barn. Charlotte thinks of a wonderful way to save Wilbur from a pig's unhappy fate. Her clever plan will delight you, in this famous story...

Great childrens book. A good read aloud for the classroom, goodnight story or a first chapter book for a 3rd or 4th grader.
Nothing like the movie.

This is the full paperback/ 22 chapter version of Charlotte's Web, published by Puffin/Modern/Classics. First published by Hamish Hamilton 1952, published in Puffin Books 1963, and again in 1993. Illustrations (black and white) by Garth Williams. The cover is in color; the front cover the same as any, with a puffin symbol.
wonderfullly imagiative book based around a farm and a little girl who tends to be a loner. Makes spiders not seem so scary!
This is a childhood favorite of mine that I've given to my 8 year old niece, who is really enjoying it. She loves PaperBack Swap and may repost the book when she's done to get another book.
Ahhh, Charlotte's web. A classic, right? I think that there are few people who haven't heard of Charlotte's Web, but just in case you haven't, I'll post an overview:
"Wilbur was lovingly raised by a girl named Fern. But now he's a barn pig. He's bored and lonely- until he meets Charlotte, the beautiful grey spider who also lives in the barn. Charlotte thinks of a wonderful way to save Wilbur from a pig's unhappy fate. Her clever plan will devlight you, in this famous story"
It's not a classic for nothing, folks! This story left me all warm and fuzzy on the inside, and I bet it will for you too ^_^

I love re-discovering the story of Wilbur the Pig and his loyal friend Charlotte the Spider. I read it in an entirely different context now that I am adult. I encourage those of you who experienced this book as a childhood favorite to pick it up again and view it through adult eyes...some very good lessons on individualism, loyalty, trust, etc. will emerge.
One of those fun, old classics!! My little ones are only 4 & 6, but they already love this story.
Love both the movie and the book,a classic!
