Not my favorite children’s book in the world but it’s a classic and it definitely has a place in the world. It has a beautiful story of friendship and moving on.

I still have my original copy of this book. In the inside cover my father wrote

"For Flannery

1987"

Then I drew a picture of a spider.

It's also the first book I really remember reading with my mom at bedtime.

This is a classic and a perfect read-aloud that I'm happy to read again and again. (Although the first scene with Charlotte and the conversation about blood-sucking makes me question my choice to read it every single time!) The boys and I really enjoyed it! <3

AMAZING! I cried at the end. :( Because it was sad at the end.

I liked this book alot. Its just a fun little story that you could read to little kids. I've read it multiple times and the story never gets old.

Well, if that doesn't have the most beautiful ending. And a perfect audiobook adaptation, I loved it. 

I enjoyed sharing this classic (through Audible) with my 6 year old daughter, who also enjoyed the story. I think it was neat to have it read by the author, however there were more than several occasions where you could hear the pages turning as he read and sometimes his voice became a little monotone and it was hard to really get into those parts of the tale.
