Summary: Awesome book, it's the best ever!
Review: I read Charlotte's Web by E.B. White. I thought it was a very good book. It had life matters in it, and it was sad and happy. I really liked it. I liked how Fern helped save Wilbur's life and how Charlotte did too,a second time. I also liked how the book has a happy ending. I liked how it was mostly about animals. My favorite characters are Timpleton, Charlotte, and Wilbur. I recomend Charlotte's Web for all ages and people who like animal stories. By Mackenzie Meier

Summary: THIS WAS THE BEST AND MOST INSPIRING BOOK!
Review: I'm not a movie critic and this small article will maybe only reach a few people but all I know is that this book is and will be forever be my favorite book and movie of all times. Better that Titanic or The Man In The Iron Mask this book touched me far more that any other piece of writing or any visual ever could. When Wilbur is sad so am I. When Wilbur is hopeful so am I. This left a tear in my eye and a smile on my face. This would be rated 999,999,999,999,(on and on)because this is the best book ever written in all times!

Summary: Delightful story!
Review: It is interesting that the author chose to title the book Charlotte's Web. Instead of naming it after the main character, Wilbur, he named it after the miraculous web. The cover picture is interesting. All eyes are focused on Charlotte, the creator of the web.

The basic theme of the story is friendship -- genuine friendship enveloped in love and trust. As time passes, many characters learn valuable life lessons, proof of the book's teaching capacity. The reader is compelled to bond with the main characters as the story progresses. The book also deals seriously with the subject of death without stirring up too much emotion.

Briefly, Charlotte's Web is a story of a runt pig whose destiny is death and to be breakfast or dinner on the table. Its owner's daughter prevents her father from killing him. She is given the opportunity to nurse him for a few weeks, but when he is no longer a baby, she has to sell him to her uncle for only $6. There he makes friends, is saved from the slaughter house, grows up, and befriends children and grandchildren of a dear, one-of-a-kind friend.

Wonderful story which should be read to every child early in life!

Rating: 5 stars

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: An old friend to be revisited often
Review: What can one say about a book which remains close to one's heart years and years after the first reading. Most initial readers of this gem are unaware of the legendary early career of its author, Mr White, who along with Robert Benchley, Dorothy Parker and Mischa Auer, helped create the sophisticated humor genre. Wonderful companions such as Charlotte, Wilbur and even Templeton(certainly an evocation of Fred Allen)are always delightful to come home to. The ending, while not the typical Alcott suger-sweet variety, rings true on many levels. Sometimes friends must leave us, regardless of how very valuable they have been, yet it is in our very reaction and more important, actions resulting from the loss, that true, unending friendship is cemented. Hence my choice of Charlotte's Web as a true friend

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Pure drivel
Review: This book was absolutely the worst thing I ever read. My children were scared, horrified, and bored. I found the book to pontificate needlessly, to overdress otherwise humorous and warm situations with disgusting psycho-sexual overtones, and to instill, in myself (at least for a day) and my children (forever?), a feeling of hollow sadness and bitterness at this calous author.
