An unusual and witty story which provides a gentle introduction to questions of mortality, Charlotte's Web is a modern classic.

From grammar to the tenderness in which this story is delivered, E. B. White's writing is so perfect... And Garth William's muted illustrations are entirely without fault. Whether read aloud or solo, this is a book well deserving of it's 'classic' status.

An extraordinary story, exquisitely written, with unforgettable passages of dialogue and description, that confronts the dilemma of our relationship with farm animals. Witty, and in places, desperately sad this is a book where animals talk yet remain who they are, themselves. A book to make you cry.

Absolutely stunning. A very sweet story with a touch of dark humour too. Wonderful. A fantastic book

A beautifully illustrated fable

I love love love it, just beautiful

I love it. A book to buy and treasure, for yourself or others.

It's touching, lovely to look at, beautifully conceived and designed. Good for children, and busy grown-ups too

...exceptionally beautiful... A modern fable, with a timeless message to appreciate what we have before it is too late.
