Friday 56: Charlotte's Web



For any post here I am simply grabbing a book and turning to page 56 and choosing a couple of lines that grab my attention. Friday 56 is hosted by Freda's Voice.

Wanted to have a little throwback to my elementary school days, so I decided to choose Charlotte's Web by E.B. White for today's Friday 56! Happy weekend!



"'I could spin a web if I tried," said Wilbur, boasting. "I've just never tried."

"Let's see you do it," said Charlotte. Fern chuckled softly, and her eyes grew wide with love for the pig.

"O.K.," replied Wilbur. "You coach me and I'll spin one. It must be a lot of fun to spin a web. How do I start?'"

    I've heard so many people love this book but never got to it myself. Maybe I'm a little bit too old for it now though :( Thanks for sharing :) I hope you have a great weekend!

    I love this book. It was good 30 years ago when I read it, and it is good now.
    Happy weekend!
