White, E.B. (1952). Charlotte's web. New York: HarperCollins Publishers.
I love this book!! It is a timeless classic and a favorite of many because it includes great characters, humor, and a wonderful storyline. My favorite thing about this book is all of the different personalities shown by the animals. I love to look at animals and imagine what they would say if they could talk - E.B. White did an excellent job of giving personalities to the animals in this book.
Charlotte's Web has been released more than once as a cartoon/movie but the most recent release was in 2006. The movie closely follows the book and does not lose any of its bittersweet joy. The actors in this film do an excellent job of portraying the characters and animal voices. I especillay love Dakota Fanning as Fern and the voice of Julia Roberts for Charlotte. I think that anyone who has read and loved Charlotte's Web will not be disappointed in this latest release of the movie. This book/movie has so many lessons for us to learn about the friends we make and the friends we lose during our life journey, and that is what makes it a classic.
