I have been reading Charlotte’s Web by E.B. White. In this book, Fern lives on a farm. At the start of the book, a piglet (小猪) has recently been born. He is very small. Fern’s father is going to kill him. But Fern saves the piglet. She calls him Wilbur and feeds him. When he is big
enough, Wilbur goes to live in a barn (谷仓) that belongs to Fern’s uncle. In the barn, Wilbur makes a friend called Charlotte. She is a spider (蜘蛛). Wilbur finds out that Fern’s uncle is going to kill him for meat. Wilbur asks Charlotte for help. Charlotte helps by writing words in her web so that people will think Wilbur is a special pig.
My favourite part of the book is when Wilbur has gone to the fair. The family have been at the fair too. They have helped Wilbur to get ready for a competition, but now they have gone home. Wilbur is nervous and Charlotte is working on a new web. This is an exciting part of the book. The best character is Templeton, the rat. He is funny. I also like the geese. I think the writer makes them seem real.
I really enjoyed reading this book. It is a nice story but the ending is a bit sad.
