Description

A beautiful clothbound edition of the much-loved modern classic Charlotte's Web. Bound in real cloth with two coloured foils and sprayed coloured edges, this deluxe edition is a perfect gift or collector’s item. Part of an eight book set published to mark the 85th anniversary of Puffin Books. With a brand-new foreword from Jordan Lees.

This is the story of a little girl named Fern who loved a little pig named Wilbur and of Wilbur's dear friend, Charlotte A. Cavatica, a beautiful large grey spider who lives with Wilbur in the barn. With the help of Templeton the rat, who never did anything for anybody unless there was something in it for him, and a wonderfully clever plan of her own. Charlotte saves the life of Wilbur, who by this time had grown up to be quite a pig.

Published over seventy years ago, with original illustrations by Garth Williams, Charlotte's Web has become an all-time favourite children's story.
