White's marvelous story, they speak to each new generation, softly and irresistibly.Sixty years ago, on October 15, 1952, E.B. White's Charlotte's Web was published.

It is a story of the magic of childhood on the farm. The thousands of children who loved Stuart Little, the heroic little city mouse, will be entranced with Charlotte the spider, Wilbur the pig, and Fern, the little girl who understood their language.
