Charlotte's Web by E.B. White

5.0

Every bit as good as I remembered it being, and my kid loved it. He was as captivated by the descriptions of life in the barn, and the changing seasons, and the fair, as he was by the overarching plot. It's pretty unique when a book can so vividly capture a historical setting in a way that works for kids and adults alike. And of course, the themes and emotions are timeless. While there may have been a couple of cringey moments that didn't age well, for the most part this is a classic for a reason.
