E. B. White was born on July 11th, 1899. He was born in Mount Vernon, New York. He passed away October 1st, 1985. Charlotte’s Web

was voted the top children’s book in a 2012 school survey. E. B. White was born in Mount Vernon,

New York. He served in the army before going to college. He graduated from Cornell University

with a Bashelor of Arts degree in 1921. While at Cornell he worked as editor of The Cornell Daily

Sun. He was also a member of the Aleph Samach and Quill and Dagger societies and Phi Gamma Delta.

During this journey he picked up the nickname Andy. White wasn't just known for the childrens book

Charlotte's Web he also wrote the childrens book Stuart Little in 1945.

The main character in Charlottte's Web would be Wilbur the pig. The pig was very important in the book, without the pig

they would've never been able to win the prize at the caravial. Wilbur was a very special pig. He could talk, and he

was Fern's bestfriend. In relaity the pig would not be believeable. Not any pig around here can talk or do some of the

things Wilbur was able to do. I don't think Wilbur reacted the way I would. He was a humble person and didn't know how to

come about some things. I'm an all open person and can talk to anyone. I would say the antagonist in this book would have to be

the dad. At the beginning of the story the dad wanted to kill the pig for being to little. Although Fern was...

...e to save the day. She made a new web that caught everyones eye and changed the

judges mind. After this Charlotte won and was ready to compete again. My faviorte quote from the book is " The pig couldn't

help being born small, could it? If I had been born very small would you have kill me? " You can find this quote on page 3.

I would recommend this book for anyone to read. It's a great story and can show anyone a lesson. I really liked it! It

teaches a lesson. It shows that just because you might be small doesn't mean you can't do everything everyone else does. Even if

it may be a childrens book everyone should take the time to read it.

This is my summary of Charlotte's Web. I hope you enjoyed it so much that you have thought about reading it yourself.

I know im glad I took the time out of my day to read it. I hope you do to.
