This book is about the friendship of love and trust with Fern (a girl) & Charlotte, a wonderful spider trying to save Wilbur, a bored & lonely pig from death. Ferns father is trying to kill Wilbur, but Fern asks her father not to kill the pig, so she could look after it and raise it.
But then, one day Ferns father told her that Wilbur has to go and stay with some other animals, but (of course) Fern gets upset. Then Wilbur met Charlotte, so can Fern and Charlotte save Wilbur.
I am glad I have read this book, because it is full of life, it has got likeable characters (described very well) and a really exciting plot. If you havent read it you definitely should, its a classic.
Charlottes Web shows the true value of friendship.
I would recommend this book to children over 8 years old & adults and anyone who loves animal stories.
