Customer Reviews

A girl and her pig; a pig and his spider friend

Considered E.B. White's best children's book, the story isn't simplistic enough to bore adults and not complicated enough to alienate youth. With themes of growing up, death and appreciating nature's beauty, the narrative flows near seamlessly, while the characters, human and non human, play their parts, minor and major. And while most of the connections formed work more within the specific story, some extend to a reflection of real bonds between friends, between family and that's what makes this so impactful a tale while also remaining grounded (aside from the "miracle" of talking animals hand-waved away in the story)

My FAVORITE childrens book

I love this book. As an adult, I have given a copy this book to my son, my daughter, both my granddaughters, all my nieces and nephews. A great book to start a library.

Fantastic Book!

I have read this book myself and to my children. I am in love with Charlotte and her kind ways. I highly recommend this book for reading to your pre teen children.

Rebound

Book was rebound - buyer not notified.

Classic read

Wonderful condition. Great chapter book to read younger kids. We watched the movie after and it was fun to see it come to life.

Great book, not what I ordered

I am working on learning German and ordered a copy in German. I received a non-returnable hardback English copy that smells like a tobacco shop. Refund was issued but still frustrating.

Literature with a Child’s Charm

Honestly, it’s a great book. This would be a good intro to literature. It’s a children’s classic but I think it’s a nice read for any age! Bittersweet and wonderfully written. Thanks Charlotte❤️‍🩹

I was sent wrong format

I wanted a hardcopy of Charlotte's Web for my book collection, and selected and paid for a hardcover in "Like New" condition. I was sent a paperback with discolored, aged pages. I ordered another hardcopy novel in Very Good Condition, in the same order and received a paperback version as well. I'll be returning both books. This is very disappointing!

Children’s classic

I haven’t read this book in many years. It was one of my favorites when I was in second or third grade. I am excited to read it again. I love the characters, especially Fern. Charlotte is also my favorite. Great book for kids or those woo are young at heart.

It’s not exactly “very good condition”

Just received this book for my daughter today, it was marked as “very good condition” and as the book is not falling apart in anyway, there is coloring on every page with pictures and even the back of the hard cover. Now I realize it’s a children’s book, but it’s just not the condition I thought I was paying for.
