Charlotte’s Web

Based on the acclaimed children’s book by American author E .B. White, this classic story of loyalty, trust, and sacrifice comes to life in this adaptation. The story is about the unlikely friendship between a pig named Wilbur and Fern, the daughter of a farmer.  Wilbur, the runt of the litter, soon finds out his days are numbered.  But with the help of his new friends, and a determined spider named Charlotte, Wilbur gains a new boost of confidence and faith.  His destiny turns and instead of becoming a Christmas dinner, Wilbur wins an award at the county fair and becomes a permanent member of the farm family.
