Kitty's Reader Notes & Book Snippet

This classic children's 1970's story with its wonderful cast of farmyard animals and the adorable pig Fern and charming Arachnid Charlotte, never fails to delight children.

An interesting little book especially useful if you want to help a child overcome a fear of Spiders.

"This is the story of a little girl named Fern who loved a cute little pig named Wibur, and of how Wilbur's dear friend Charlotte A Cavatica, a beautiful grey spider saved Wilbur from the usual fate of nice fat pigs by a wonderfully clever plan which no one else could possibly have thought of!

There are a lot of other interesting characters on Mr Zuckerman's Farm, notably a cynical grey rat called Templeton and a most irresponsible goose both whom help to make Wilbur the most famous pig in the District.

E.B. white has written an outstanding book for children that is full of summer magic.

It will please boys and girls up to 11 years of age and is especially good for reading Aloud."
