Charlotte's Web


The new movie of Charlotte's Web is out and receiving wonderful reviews but it is the book itself that's the star. The New York Times movie review today called it "not only one of the most beloved children's books, but as close to perfect as any book I can think of".

Of course every child should see this movie, but for the ultimate in experiencing this book they should hear the audio version, actually read by E.B. White. His voice and accent are beyond description, and make this my most memorable audiobook.
