NOT good condition

They should refund for sellers lying about condition of the product. Good condition= no tears, stains and minimal writing. This was old and musty with gross yellow spotting everywhere like it had been in a smokers house. The book is in GROSS condition.

Charlotte's Web

Loved this book as a child so definitely wanted to get it for my granddaughter but was a little disappointed in the condition of the book.i ordered the hard cover like new condition but the book jacket was ripped in several places and the book was also written in. I just expected more from a book that says its like new.

Charlotte's web was a favorite among my girl's

A timeless classic. I have read this book to my girls many times and have chosen to carry on this tradition and bought this book to read to future generations!

Kate DeCamillo is NOT the author, she only is the writer of the forward in this book! E.B. White is

This is a wonderful story and a true classic! It is timeless in it's message about friendship and loyalty. Unfortunately, the author's billing should be for the author, E.B. White, not Kate DeCamillo. She wrote the forward, but unless I am mistaken about how it is handled, her name should not be linked as being the author when I search for Kate DeCamillo books.

My son's favorite book

This is my son's favorite book. He demands I read it every night.

Beautiful book.

This book is very sweet. Great read aloud for you and your kiddos!

Touching

This is the touching story of a little pig from death by a girl who took pity on him and decided to rear him. The pig later makes friends with a spider. It's a great book for kids. A pity it is out of print. If you're looking for something similar (touching and amusing) try Winnie Ille Pu (Latin Edition), if you're up to something more daring and adventurous try Insula Thesauraria (Latin Edition).

same book you read as a child

This is the same book you read as a child but in a hard cover, with giant print. I am really happy with the high quality of this book.

Charlotte's Web, the Book Versus the Movie

Hi I'm Itselle and I'm going to talk about the book Charlotte's Web. You might have read the book or have seen the movie. I have done both and I have noticed that Charlotte's Web the movie and Charlotte's Web the book are different in some interesting ways. One way was when Fern found out that her dad was going to kill the spring pig because in the movie she saw her father with the axe going to the barn at night and she followed him to the barn but, in the book she asks her mom where her dad is going with the axe in the morning. I think the differences the book and the movie don't really matter that much. I think that because, in general, the same problems and events happend in the book and in the movie. I enjoyed both of them a lot. They both were very funny and sad at the same time, which I loved. I recommend the book Charlotte's Web to 4th and 5th graders and the movie to people who like kid movies. Itselle R. - St. Ignatius School, Bronx, NY
