"SOME PIG," Charlotte the spider's praise for Wilbur, is just one fondly remembered snippet from E.B. White's Charlotte's Web. In this book, Melissa Sweet mixes White's personal letters, photos, and family ephemera with her own artwork to tell his story, from his birth in 1899 to his death in 1985.
