No Hogs here....
One of the best books ever written. If theres one book you must get your children to read, make it this. The ending is a testament to the author, for being very brave, and being able to pull it off with ease!

Charlotte's Web
A wonderful story of a pig & a spider. It's all about friendship and the harsh realities of life. Poignant ending. I loved it as a child and my 9 and 5 year-old children loved it today!

Wonderful
As a child I loved this book, the characters are wonderful especially Charlotte, for a childrens book it is full of depth but in easy to understand language, it is sad but it just makes the book more poignant and i love the way it does not shy away from reality.
