[This] book is for all readers: literary analysts, process writing proponents, and middle-grade sleuths curious about an all-time favorite book. The annotations include information from Whites eight drafts of Charlottes Web, cross-references to his other writings and to the source books he used, Neumeyer's own stylistic comments and some general, cultural, comments. The format sets each page of Whites text to a wide column of notes
