Rediscover this classic, much-loved story by E. B. White, beautifully illustrated by Garth Williams and reissued as a gorgeous full-colour hardback. A perfect gift to read aloud and share with all the family. One spring morning a little girl called Fern rescues a runt and names him Wilbur. But then Wilbur is sent to live on a farm where he meets Charlotte, a very clever and very beautiful large grey spider. They become best friends and, when Wilbur is faced with a dreadful fate, Charlotte must find an ingenious way to save him. 'No child should be without a copy' - Daily Mail
Semirdzhyan's muted watercolor illustrations, featuring expressive faces, delightful scenery, and wispy spiderwebs, along with the simple-but not overly short-sentences on each page make a charming introduction to this tale of cherished farm friends. More than 70 years since their debut, Charlotte remains a devoted friend, and Wilbur is still "some pig." - Michelle Proper, Booklist
