Well of course who doesn't love Charlotte's Web, its a family classic! This book should be shared with every child, its such a lovely story, about a girl and her best friends who happen to be a spider (names Charolotte of course) and a pig, but this to me teaches children that no matter how different two things are they can be perfect together! What a wonderful book, I recommend for everyone!

mom and me read this one together. it was a sad story but also happy at different times. Its a good read but be prepared to be sad.

I loved this book from when I was 6 until today at age 13. The only bad thing about this book, in my opinion, was the spider. Couldn't the role the spider played have been the same through a duck or a dog or something. Otherwise this book is appropriate for anyone, from 5 to 85. Especially for young children, there are so many morals kids can learn.

This book is about a spider who saves a pig from getting killed. Well, a girl saves Wilbur, (the pig) for the first time, but will she be able to save him the second time? Wilbur makes a new friend, with a spider. Her name is Charlotte. My favorite part is when Charlotte writes words about Wilbur on her web. This book is really about true friendship. I love this book!

This book is definitely a classic. This is one of my all-time favorite stories. It was bittersweet, and I loved the characters. I'm not afraid to admit that I did cry quite a few times for the duration of the book. The pacing was perfect, and the story just flowed. I would give this about 673268419 stars. ~ifeelbookish P.S. Sorry for the really short review, I just can't express my feelings for this book, it's just so amazing.

I will recommend this story because this is about a friendship between a pig and spider and how the pig misses his friend spider since she died. But before she died she laid eggs and the pig took the eggs and hatched them himself. He kept his friendship alive through the spiderlings for many years. They were all nice but not as nice as Charlotte the spider.

this book was absolutely loved it the movie is even better than the book can and will read this book agian and will watch the movie over and over

This book is one hundred percent sweet. It blew my mind!

Now i want a pig, because this story is adorable and i get how this is a Must Read for everyone no matter the age.
