Charlotte's Web by E.B. White

charbearreads's review against another edition

This book had lessons about caring for someone else, responsibility, imagination, foes, friendships, and family. I do not ever remember reading this book as a child so I really wanted to give it a try, honestly just because the title is my name. The story kept me intrigued, wanting to see what was to come. Charlotte did not want her friend to die and she did every thing in her power to guarantee Wilbur lives a full some, terrific, and humble life. Such a good good read!!!

When I was about to start it, an acquaintance told me that its protagonist is a pig and it's about how a spider saved his life; how good it could be? Hearing his opinion I avoided it for about a week but started it a couple of days ago.

I finished it last night. This morning that acquaintance was unfortunately found murdered, stabbed to death, in mysterious circumstances. I wonder why would anyone want to murder him.

This was such an enjoyable listen. I liked this movie growing up but I don't think I ever read the book. What a classic though!

I have loved the movie and the book so much, Wilbur is also such a cute name for any pet. This book is so well crafted and put together. I have always liked the classic kids books, they are fun to read and it just reminds me of my childhood. I remember in my childhood watching the movie but I don't know if I ever read the book. I listened to the audiobook it was only 4 hours long and it was a quick listen. I will read this book again in the future, it was that good. I loved that Wilbur never forgot Charlotte and that I think 4 of her kids stayed behind with Wilbur. This book will always be a good read for young readers.

I have the cd audio book of this novel. Recently, I wantonly put it on while I did some spring cleaning and I ended up fully sobbing. It hits every time, it’s still one of my favorite middle grade books. No notes

Read this as a child. It was an average book for me that didn't stick out to me over the years.
