Charlotte’s Web – Student Guide (Second Edition)

Sample

Some Pig. Humble. Radiant. These are the words in Charlotte’s Web, high up in Zuckerman’s barn. Charlotte’s spiderweb tells of her feelings for a little pig named Wilbur, who simply wants a friend. They also express the love of a girl named Fern, who saved Wilbur’s life when he was born the runt of his litter. E. B. White’s Newbery Honor Book is a tender novel of friendship, love, life, and death. It will continue to be enjoyed by generations to come.

Memoria Press literature guides seek to instruct students in observation and discernment. Contemplative reading is not a passive activity, but one that requires an active, discriminating mind trained to comprehend, examine, and connect. Students who learn to appreciate good literature develop a lasting preference for high-quality books.

This Student Guide features reading notes and vocabulary to prepare students to read, comprehension and discussion questions, and essential questions to help identify the major themes of the story.
