Through this humorous and touching story of a spider and a pig, I learned the importance of being a true friend and a good writer. In fact, I grew up to become a chidren's author, blessed with some terrific lifelong friends.
The page where Charlotte dies in our childhood copy is streaked with tears contributed by me and my three siblings through many readings a piece. To this day, that passage chokes me up, summing up what a life well lived means.
