Charlotte's Web

[Tiger]

I read Charlotte's Web on holiday... and loved it!

My fave character was Avery because he was quite funny! I was relieved when Wilbur didn't become a slice of bacon or a pork chop!

I understand that this book is a classic. Does anyone remember reading it?

[Kell]

I read it years & years ago & it's one I've always meant to revisit. Have you ever seen the film, Tiger? It always makes me cry!

[Tiger]

Oh Kell! I didn't know it was a film! I bet it's good, but I don't like films that make me cry that much! :oops: I'll watch out for this one then!!!

[Inanna]

Oh I love this book, looking forward to rereading it one day :wink:

[Kell]

Yup, it was made into an animated film back in 1973. you can see a bit about it here: http://uk.imdb.com/title/tt0070016/

There's a live action remake in production right now too: http://uk.imdb.com/title/tt0413895/

It'll be out at Xmas. Guess what I'll be going to see!

Charlotte is the only spider who diesn't make me shudder at the very thought of her!

[Tiger]

Yes, I agree... she's not a spider that makes me scream!

[Tash]

Charlotte's Web was a book I studied in English many many years ago. I can vaguely remember it, I definitely remember it being great. As a reward for end of term finishing, we also watched the film.

I think I may have to reread this one to jog my memory, it's not what it used to be!

[Angel]

I can vaguely remember reading it when I was about 9, and can only remember a couple of things about it. Perhaps I will have to pinch your copy sometime Tiger!

[Tiger]

Just let me know when you need it and I'll dig it out for you, Angel! :angel:

[Maureen]

Tiger and Angel - yourown swap corner!! :lol:

[jake]

Yes, that had me laughing too :lol:

[Tiger]

Yes, I found that funny when I was writing it at the time. :lol:

[Margo]

I remember our teacher reading this one to us at school. I loved it.

[Tiger]

I loved reading Charlotte's Web and has become one of my favourites.

:read: :reading: :read: :read:

[Tiger]

Did anyone else enjoy Charlotte's Web?

[Louiseog]

I loved Charlotte's Web, read it to my son though and had to stop because it made me cry!
We have baby spiders in the garden at the moment and I call them Charlies!

[Michelle]

I'm sure Beth has it upstairs.. I might give it a try. :D

[Janet]

I understand that this book is a classic. Does anyone remember reading it?
I read it about 30 years ago and remember enjoying it a great deal. I might buy it for my daughter to read.

[Icecream]

I cannot remember if I ever heard this book or not (I say heard because I may have heard it in school but not sure).. Sounds like an good children's book to get my hands on!

[Sugar]

We had to read this at primary school, I must have read it 3 times as a child, and watched the film at least that too.

It never failed to make me cry.

A bit out of fashion now, I think, but a wonderful book.
