About the authors
Garth Montgomery Williams (April 16, 1912 – May 8, 1996) was an American artist who came to prominence in the American postwar era as an illustrator of children's books. Many of the books he illustrated have become classics of American children's literature.
Bio from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.
E.B. White, the author of twenty books of prose and poetry, was awarded the 1970 Laura Ingalls Wilder Medal for his children's books, Stuart Little and Charlotte's Web. This award is now given every three years "to an author or illustrator whose books, published in the United States, have, over a period of years, make a substantial and lasting contribution to literature for children." The year 1970 also marked the publication of Mr. White's third book for children, The Trumpet of the Swan, honored by The International Board on Books for Young People as an outstanding example of literature with international importance. In 1973, it received the Sequoyah Award (Oklahoma) and the William Allen White Award (Kansas), voted by the school children of those states as their "favorite book" of the year.
Born in Mount Vernon, New York, Mr. White attended public schools there. He was graduated from Cornell University in 1921, worked in New York for a year, then traveled about. After five or six years of trying many sorts of jobs, he joined the staff of The New Yorker magazine, then in its infancy. The connection proved a happy one and resulted in a steady output of satirical sketches, poems, essays, and editorials. His essays have also appeared in Harper's Magazine, and his books include One Man's Meat, The Second Tree from the Corner, Letters of E.B. White, The Essays of E.B. White and Poems and Sketches of E.B. White. In 1938 Mr. White moved to the country. On his farm in Maine he kept animals, and some of these creatures got into his stories and books. Mr. White said he found writing difficult and bad for one's disposition, but he kept at it. He began Stuart Little in the hope of amusing a six-year-old niece of his, but before he finished it, she had grown up.
For his total contribution to American letters, Mr. White was awarded the 1971 National Medal for Literature. In 1963, President John F. Kennedy named Mr. White as one of thirty-one Americans to receive the Presidential Medal for Freedom. Mr. White also received the National Institute of Arts and Letters' Gold Medal for Essays and Criticism, and in 1973 the members of the Institute elected him to the American Academy of Arts and Letters, a society of fifty members. He also received honorary degrees from seven colleges and universities. Mr. White died on October 1, 1985.

"Charlotte's Web," E.B. White's literary masterpiece, is a timeless classic that continues to captivate readers of all ages. This heartwarming tale, with its enchanting narrative and unforgettable characters, beautifully weaves together themes of friendship, compassion, and the circle of life.
At the heart of the story is the unlikely bond between Wilbur, a lovable pig, and Charlotte, a wise and resourceful spider. White's eloquent prose not only brings these characters to life but also imparts valuable life lessons in a way that is both touching and profound.
The narrative unfolds in the tranquil setting of Zuckerman's farm, where the animals communicate and form connections that transcend species boundaries. As Charlotte spins her intricate webs to save Wilbur from an untimely fate, readers are treated to a display of selflessness and kindness that leaves a lasting impression.
"Charlotte's Web" is not merely a children's book; it is a literary gem that explores complex themes with simplicity and grace. The vivid imagery and thoughtful storytelling make it a delightful read for children while offering deeper layers of meaning for adult readers.
In a world where the importance of empathy often takes center stage, "Charlotte's Web" remains a beacon of inspiration. Its enduring charm lies in its ability to remind us of the profound impact of compassion, making it a must-read for generations to come.
Second of all it was sad I did not like how charlotte died in the book it got very sad
Third of all it was a cute book I wish there was more exciting moments and surprises it was a good book though that’s why I gave it ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ stars
