My mother read "Charlotte's Web" to me nearly 70 years ago. It was one of the first books I read by myself and I still return to it every few years. The Garth Williams illustrations are indelible. (I love the woman who remarks that "Some Pig" could be "Some Spider.")
Oh Wilbur, my favorite literary pig. I can’t bring myself to watch the Lord of the flies reboot. I’m just too averse to children as killers terror lol. Same goes for hunger games. And those deadly Yellowjackets. But I like reading your thoughts on the matter especially on a gray cold rainy day.

It's such a wonderful book, probably my favorite for that age (and always). I agree - it's really about "some spider!"

Kids are the worst kind of animal!
