Good Story Having a dual form of dyslexia I did not learn to read until later in life. Thus I never read children's books while a child. Maybe that is why I read so many still today. I read this as part of a children's literature course in university. It is an interesting book, about friendship, commitment, compassion, change and death.

Let the web unravel... This is a great read for young and old alike.It deals with love, loyalty, loss and, ultimately, death. Told in such an easy style, the story of Fern, Wilbur and Charlotte is truely timeless.
Not just for children I just recently read this book, at 21 as it came highly recommended by friends as a 'must read classic.' I thought it was a fantastic tale of friendship and didn't have a predictable everyone lives happily ever after ending.

Classic story - a must read for kids! Read this book as a child, and have recently bought it for my 8 year old daughter. She loved it as much as I did. Its a lovely story, and a real classic. It doesnt have the usual "and everyone lived happily ever after" ending either, I think thats good as kids do need to see that that doesnt always happen.
I will certainly be keeping hold of this book in the hope that my 2 sons will read it too, when they're old enough.
