Charlotte's Web: When did you read the novel?

[GL]

i was 10 years old when i read that one.

what a great read.

The spider dies? Great. Now you've ruined it for me.

That's a cheesy ending anyway. That'd be as bad as the Grinch making up with all those losers down in Whoville.

 

[valis23]

Lighten up, Francis.
I was kidding.

 

[Sunshine]

I read it before kindergarten.

I didn't like it, it bored me. I never saw the movie though.

 

[Sunshine]

Let me reread you the book while you're sleeping in bed.

Aww Will you snuggle with me too?

 

[DeafFoxDemon]

i never read the book, but i watch the movie, i was about 8 at the time, i cried like a baby

 

[kevbo]

never read the book, only saw the animated movie... never cried.

 

[eddielee]

I read it back in 1971 or 1972. Hell, it's been so long ago I can't remember.

 

[Kraseviya]

My mom read it to me when I was little, I saw the cartoon first though in school.

Charlotte's Web and Stuart Little were read to one of my grade school classes when i was a wee lad. I want to say it was in 4th or 5th grade.
I didn't revisit until I read it to my own daughter ages later. It was a great bonding moment for us. We both like Charlotte's Web better than Stuart Little.

 

[star-warrior]

Never.

We never used it in school English lessons, nor have I ever picked it up to read.

My sister has the cartoon, and we did watch it though.

 

[RationalLunacy]

When I read it, John F. Kennedy was the president.

 

[gsdx]

Never read it. Haven't even seen the movie. But I've read Watership Down and seen the movie several times:

I received a copy of Charlotte's Web from an aunt in 1959 for my 6th birthday. I had just started learning to read so my sister who was 10 read it to me at night. I fell in love with that book (which I still have).

I can still remember laying there in my bed in complete utter bliss as my sister read the whole book to me in one night.
