CHARLOTTE'S WEB : MY FIRST LOVE STORY

Charlotte's Web is a beautiful love story that will warm your heart and inspire you. It is one of my favorite childhood stories. The animated tale is full of romance, drama, and adventure. You will fall in love with Fern, Wilbur, and Charlotte.

Fern is a little girl who saves the life of piglet Wilbur and brings him into her home as a pet. No pet is treated more royally than Wilbur. I still get tears in my eyes when I hear the song Fern sings to a swadled Wilber, "there must be something special about me and you". Soon Wilbur is nurtured and loved into a robust pig. Fern's father insists he is sold to a farm and is soon mainstreamed into the life of a barnyard animal.

Wilbur is taught to speak and is soon indoctrinated into the harsh realities of barnyard life. He develops friendships with several of the other animals and especially with one spider named Charlotte. Charlotte takes over the "mothering" role Fern left behind and ultimately saves Wilbur's life for a second time with the help of some other barnyard friends.

This story is full of lesson's about devotion, love, friendship, and sacrifice. You will be charmed through the tale as Wilbur learns that he is indeed a SPECIAL pig. If you have yet to see this movie I highly recommend you set aside an hour and grab some tissues. Invite your children, your favorite pet, or your significant other (in that order) to join you in this romantic childhood story about love.

I hope you enjoy it.
