Charlotte’s Web

Charlotte’s Web

FROM SARAH:

The literary masterpiece. (I talk more about Charlotte's Web and why it has to be as sad as it is in RAR #202: For Kids Who Don't Like Sad Books.) The audiobook is narrated by the author and is just fabulous.

Wonderful on audio (Audible | LibroFM).

FROM THE PUBLISHER:

E. B. White's Newbery Honor Book is a tender novel of friendship, love, life, and death that will continue to be enjoyed by generations to come. It contains illustrations by Garth Williams, the acclaimed illustrator of E. B. White's Stuart Little and Laura Ingalls Wilder's Little House series, among many other books.

The iconic E.B. White's story of a small mouse with big adventures. This one is fun to read aloud first, and then follow-up with a comparison of the movie. Excellent on audio (Audible I Libro.FM).

The Elements of Style

FROM THE PUBLISHER:

You know the authors' names. You recognize the title. You've probably used this book yourself. This is The Elements of Style, the classic style manual, now in a fourth edition. A new Foreword by Roger Angell reminds readers that the advice of Strunk & White is as valuable today as when it was first offered.
