Charlotte’s Web
was a required reading for my children’s literature class. I had read this book
several years ago while in elementary school, but after reading it again I felt
that my perspective of the book has changed. I do not remember the book being
so violent, even starting out with Mr. Arable headed out to the pigpen with an
axe. I also don’t remember how depressing this book was. Once Wilbur is at the
Zuckerman farm, he is very lonely and depressed. Wilbur misses Fern very much
and no one wants to associate with him. I also do not remember Charlotte to be
so stern with Wilbur; multiple times Charlotte would tell Wilbur to go to sleep
or other various tasks.
Overall, I am glad that I reread this classic as it is a very good book.
