A wonderful book that many miss the strength of. Children typically do not understand the permanency of death until they are around 8-10 years old, the majority not understanding this until 10. Charlotte's Web is not a cute child's story, but a coming of age story, as Wilber and Fern both grow from childhood to adult.
Charlotte's Web by E.B. White is a charming and timeless classic that is suitable for young readers. While the story does contain some sad moments, it is ultimately about the power of friendship, loyalty, and perseverance. The language used in the book is easy to understand, and the topics covered are generally suitable for children.

The major themes of Charlotte's Web include some very adult themes that are dealt in a sensitive way for children. Those themes are life, death, and friendship. E.B. White also does a nice job of introducing new vocabulary and describing what the words mean without disrupting the story line. In my opinion, this is a must read for every child.

Review. While it may be considered a children's book, Charlotte's Web by E.B. White lives up to its name as a classic. The simple story provides for a light and easy read, while still providing an elegantly woven story. The characters, while not super developed, are jocular and entertaining, and still preserve the sort-of dramatic side of the book.

Good things are not generational, they are eternal. John Steinbeck once said, "evil must constantly respawn, while good, while virtue, is immortal.". What makes Charlotte's Web such an extraordinary book is that it gives meaning to Wilbur's loss. Charlotte dies after laying her eggs, leaving behind a part of herself in her children.
