A classic for children!

A childhood favorite book, I knew I wanted to get this for my daughter to read it. She is 3rd grade and though there may be a few words she needs to ask help on, it is a good start to chapter books.

A family favourite to read, I used to read this to my niece until she was able to read for herself.

This book is a child’s classic! I used to read it to my first graders and they were mesmerized by it!

The book and print quality seem to be very nice for the hardcover version. I love the fact they have kept what appears to be the original art for the book instead of modernizing it for today's readers. I'm in my 40s and grew up with the classic cartoon movie so it's about time that I sit down to relive come childhood memories from the source.

It's a lovely book I'm reading it to my child to teach him about friendship, love, and sincere relationships. Through Wilbur and Charlotte, I want you to learn the value of helping others and those we love. It's a story we're sharing together today.

I had a lot of fun reading this. I had never read it growing up, but had always seen it on the shelves of every library I had ever visited. It was one of those books you always knew about, but had never got around to reading. Probably because of the silly movie. Not long ago I was talking to my 8 year old granddaughter. She mentioned that she had never heard of it, which surprised me. Like I said earlier, “Charlotte’s Web” and E. B. White books were always a library staple. So I decided to share it with her and found an untouched copy in our public library. My wish was to read it with her but she does not live with us so I decided to video it instead. That was fun. I’m not an expert on videos but managed to get all 22 chapters posted to the video site so that she can watch it. The movie leaves out some fun moments in Wilbur’s life. There are also some sweet, tender moments between Wilbur and his friends that the book captures much better than the movie. I think that it is a shame that so many beloved stories, like “Charlotte’s Web” have been reduced to movies. I ask everyone to share and old favorite book with a child. Read every day, read for fun!

I will always remember this book as a wonderful, heart-warming story and it is a definite favourite. My daughters have read it a few times and they, also, just love it. This story is timeless and children will always seek it out on the library-shelf!

Exciting plot and nice characters … End of story is slightly sad. Reading that book I came across so many adorable sentences. This book has provided me so much lovely vocabulary.

ordered for my kid. It's a good book. I wanted it long ago, but couldn't find it in the bookstores here.
