Charlotte's Web

Some Pig。 Humble。 Radiant。 These are the words in Charlotte's web, high up in Zuckerman's barn。 Charlotte's spiderweb tells of her feelings for a little pig named Wilbur, who simply wants a friend。 They also express the love of a girl named Fern, who saved Wilbur's life when he was born the runt of his litter。 E。 B。 White's Newbery Honor Book is a tender novel of friendship, family, and adventure。

Stuart Little

Stuart Little is no ordinary mouse。 Born to a family of humans, he lives in New York City with his family。 But when Stuart's best friend goes missing, he's determined to leave home and take an epic journey to find his friend。

The Trumpet of the Swan

Louis is a trumpeter swan, but unlike the rest of his family, he can't make a sound。 And since he can't trumpet his love, the beautiful swan Serena pays no attention to him。 But when his father steals him a real brass trumpet, Louis has to find out if it's the key to what he's wanted all along。 E。 B。 White's classic book is a tender novel of overcoming the odds and learning to do things on your own terms。

Charlotte's Web was my absolute favourite when I was a little girl。 White's stories held up well rereading as an adult。 They felt just as magical as they did when I was 8 years old, but I was able to pick up new insights and wisdom that was over my head as a child。 “It is not often that someone comes along who is a true friend and a good writer。” Charlotte's Web was my absolute favourite when I was a little girl。 White's stories held up well rereading as an adult。 They felt just as magical as they did when I was 8 years old, but I was able to pick up new insights and wisdom that was over my head as a child。 “It is not often that someone comes along who is a true friend and a good writer。” 。。。more

contrary to popular opinion, I feel that The Trumpet of the Swan was far and away the best of the three books。 Stuart Little and Charlotte's Web were good books, but that one was great。 It's too bad it doesn't get more recognition contrary to popular opinion, I feel that The Trumpet of the Swan was far and away the best of the three books。 Stuart Little and Charlotte's Web were good books, but that one was great。 It's too bad it doesn't get more recognition 。。。more

I like this three classic tale book because it embodies all of the classic stories I grew up with。 I like the feel of this book and how it made me feel when I was reading it。 This book is great for teachers to use in a classroom because they can read a different story whenever they want and then go and watch a movie on it as well。 I think it important that children are open and aware of the stories my generation grew up with。 I like how simple the illustrations are in this book as well。The sketc I like this three classic tale book because it embodies all of the classic stories I grew up with。 I like the feel of this book and how it made me feel when I was reading it。 This book is great for teachers to use in a classroom because they can read a different story whenever they want and then go and watch a movie on it as well。 I think it important that children are open and aware of the stories my generation grew up with。 I like how simple the illustrations are in this book as well。The sketches add to the authenticity of the book and the story itself。 I think, as times have changed, children's expectations of illustrations in book have become much higher。 I love this book because it reminds me of my childhood and it is very authentic which I really appreciate。 This book is certainly one I would use in a classroom to read to my students。 We could read it as a class as out "community book" where we read little snibits at the end of every day before the students go home。 I enjoy this book and what it embodies。 。。。more

I had this little set at a child。 My Poppa got it for me。 It came with three books。 Charlotte's Web, The Trumpet of the Swan and Stuart Little。 I loved reading Charlotte's Web and it was the most read book I had。 The Second had to be Stuart Little。 I didn't really get into The Trumpet of the Swan until I was a little bit older。I have to say that it was the best gift that my Poppa ever gave me。 I can't remember it if was Christmas, or a birthday gift。 All that I remember is getting it。 And how I I had this little set at a child。 My Poppa got it for me。 It came with three books。 Charlotte's Web, The Trumpet of the Swan and Stuart Little。 I loved reading Charlotte's Web and it was the most read book I had。 The Second had to be Stuart Little。 I didn't really get into The Trumpet of the Swan until I was a little bit older。I have to say that it was the best gift that my Poppa ever gave me。 I can't remember it if was Christmas, or a birthday gift。 All that I remember is getting it。 And how I loved that little slip cover that held all those three books together as a set。 It is one of the best memories I had as a child。 。。。more

Charlotte's Web and The Trumpet of the Swan were very good。 I didn't care for Stuart Little as much。 It lacked cohesiveness, something that the movie did a much better job of。 This is one of those rare books where I think I would say the movie was actually better。 Charlotte's Web and The Trumpet of the Swan were very good。 I didn't care for Stuart Little as much。 It lacked cohesiveness, something that the movie did a much better job of。 This is one of those rare books where I think I would say the movie was actually better。 。。。more

I read this book, not this edition, and loved it。 Charlotte was my favorite character, and what sparked my interest in entomology。 It was my favorite book as a child。 I also liked Stuart Little。 I don't recall reading The Trumpet of the Swan。 I may have, but will have to read or read it again to find out。 I read this book, not this edition, and loved it。 Charlotte was my favorite character, and what sparked my interest in entomology。 It was my favorite book as a child。 I also liked Stuart Little。 I don't recall reading The Trumpet of the Swan。 I may have, but will have to read or read it again to find out。 。。。more

I will not lie I never know these movies were based on books。 I seen it in the trunk of my mother's car and begged her to let me read it。 I enjoyed Charlotte's web and the trumpet of the swan。 Stuart little story was weird to me and I didn't like the ending at all but besides that they were cute stories。 I will not lie I never know these movies were based on books。 I seen it in the trunk of my mother's car and begged her to let me read it。 I enjoyed Charlotte's web and the trumpet of the swan。 Stuart little story was weird to me and I didn't like the ending at all but besides that they were cute stories。 。。。more
