Charlotte's Web E.B.White Classic Vintage Children's Book 50th Anniversary Edition Puffin Hardback

Kitty's Notes:

Who would ever have expected that a heroine of a children's story in the 1950's would be a spider, but author E. B. White created this magical tale about the spider Charlotte A. Cavatica and her web at the farm where the little girl Fern finds love and friendship and lots of adventure.

Fern has a superpower she can understand all the animals and knows what they are saying and she loves her pig Wilbur very much.

For any child who loves animals this book makes a delightful treat and even helps to make spiders less scary. And that has to be a good thing for any child!

An enduring classic children's book that still has the power to enchant and amuse today and is a delightful tale to read and share, especially as a bedtime story.

Excerpt from this book "Charlotte's Web" Anniversary Edition:

"The children ran out to the road and climbed into the bus. Fern took no notice of the others in the bus. She just sat and stared out of the window, thinking what a blissful world it was and how lucky she was to have entire charge of a pig. By the time the bus reached school, Fern had named her pet, selecting the most beautiful name she could think of.

'It's name is Wilbur,' she whispered to herself.

She was still thinking about the pig when the teacher said: 'Fern, what is the capital of Pennsylvania?'
'Wilbur,' replied Fern, dreamily.
The pupils giggled. Fern blushed. "
