Plot summary
Wilbur soon becomes a member o the community o animals that live in the cellar o Zuckerman's barn. When the old sheep in the barn cellar tells Wilbur that he is going tae be killed an eaten at Christmas, he turns tae Charlotte for help. Charlotte has the idea o writin words in her web extollin Wilbur's excellence ("some pig," "terrific," "radiant," an eventually "humble"), reasoning that if she can make Wilbur sufficiently famous, he will not be killed. Thanks tae Charlotte's efforts, an wi the assistance o the gluttonous rat Templeton, Wilbur not only lifes, but goes tae the county fair wi Charlotte an wins a prize. Havin reached the end of her natural lifespan, Charlotte dies at the fair. Wilbur repays Charlotte bi bringing home wi him the sac o eggs (her "magnum opus") she had laid at the fair before dying.

Charlotte's Web
Death
Death is a major theme seen throughout Charlotte's Web an is brought forth bi that o the speeder, Charlotte's, web. Accordin tae Norton D. Kinghorn, Charlotte's web acts as a barrier that separates two worlds. These worlds are that o life an death. Scholar Amy Ratelle says that through Charlotte's continual killin an eatin o flies throughout the novel, White makes the concept o death normal for Wilbur an for the readers. Wilbur constantly has death on his mind at night when he is worryin over whether or not he will be made intae meat for humans tae consume, but as scholar Sophie Mills notes, Wilbur is able tae avoid death. Even though Wilbur is able tae escape his death, Charlotte, the speeder that takes care of Wilbur, is not able tae escape her own death. Charlotte passes away, but accordin tae Trudelle H. Thomas, "Yet even in the face of death, life continues and ultimate goodness wins out". Jordan Anne Deveraux explains that E. B. White discusses a few realities o death. From the novel, readers learn that death can be delayed, but it cannot be avoided forever.
Sooth Carolina
Sooth Carolina is named in honour o King Charles I o Ingland, that first formed the Inglis colony, wi Carolus bein Latin for "Charles".
Sooth Carolina is kent for its 187 mile o coastline, beautifu lush gairdens, historic steids an Soothren plantations, colonial, African an European culturs, an its growin economic development.
Charlotte's Web
Change
For Norton D. Kinghorn, Charlotte's web also acts as a signifier o change. The change Kinghorn refers tae is that o both the human world an the farm/barn world. For both o these worlds change is somethin that cannot be avoided. Along wi the changin o the saisons throughout the novel, the chairacters also go through their own changes. Jordan Anne Deveraux also explains that Wilbur an Fern each go through their changes tae transition from childhood closer tae adulthood throughout the novel. This is evidenced bi Wilbur acceptin death an Fern givin up her dolls. Wilbur grows throughout the novel, allowin him tae become the caretaker o Charlotte's children just as she wis a caretaker for him, as is explained bi scholar Sue Misheff. But rather than accept the changes that are forced upon them, according tae Sophie Mills, the chairacters aim tae go beyond the limits o change. In a different way, Wilbur goes through a change when he switches locations. Amy Ratelle explains that when he moves from Fern's house tae Homer Zuckerman's farm, Wilbur goes from bein a loved pet tae a farm animal.

Charlotte's Web
Innocence
Fern, the little girl in the novel, goes from bein a child tae being more o an adult. As she goes through this change, Kinghorn notes that it can also be considered a fall from innocence. Wilbur also starts out young an innocent at the beginnin o the novel. A comparison is drawn between the innocence an youth o Fern an Wilbur. Sophie Mills states that the two chairacters can identify wi ane another. Both Wilbur an Fern are, at first, horrified bi the realization that life must end; however, bi the end o the novel, both chairacters learn tae accept that everything must die. Accordin tae Matthew Scully, the novel presents the difference in the worldview o adults versus the worldview o children. Children, sic as Fern, believe killin another for food is wrong, while adults have learned tae justify this action.
History
Charlotte's Web wis published three years after White began writing it. White's editor Ursula Nordstrom said that ane day in 1952, E. B. White arrived at her office an handed her a new manuscript, the only copy o Charlotte's Web then in existence, which she read soon after an enjoyed.
Since White published Death of a Pig in 1948, an account o his own failure tae save a sick pig (bought for butchering), Charlotte's Web can be seen as White's attempt "tae save his pig in retrospect". White's overall motivation for the book has not been revealed an he has written: "I haven't told why I wrote the book, but I haven't told you why I sneeze, either. A book is a sneeze".
When White met the speeder that originally inspired Charlotte, he called her Charlotte Epeira (after Epeira sclopetaria, the Grey Cross speeder, now known as Larinioides sclopetarius), before discoverin that the more modern name for that genus wis Aranea. In the novel, Charlotte gives her full name as "Charlotte A. Cavatica", revealin her as a barn speeder, an orb-weaver wi the scientific name Araneus cavaticus.
The arachnid anatomical terms (mentioned in the beginning o chapter nine) an other information that White used, came mostly from American Spiders bi Willis J. Gertsch an The Spider Book bi John Henry Comstock, both o which combine a sense o poetry wi scientific fact. White incorporated details from Comstock's accounts o baby speeders, most notably the "flight" o the young speeders on silken parachutes. White sent Gertsch's book tae illustrator Garth Williams. Williams' initial drawins depicted a speeder wi a woman's face, an White suggested that he simply draw a realistic speeder instead.
White originally opened the novel wi an introduction o Wilbur an the barnyard (which later became the third chapter) but decided tae begin the novel bi introducin Fern an her family on the first page. White's publishers were at ane point concerned wi the book's endin an tried tae get White tae change it.
Reception
Charlotte's Web wis generally well-reviewed when it wis released. In The New York Times, Eudora Welty wrote, "As a piece of work it is just about perfect, and just about magical in the way it is done." Aside from its paperback sales, Charlotte's Web is 78th on the all-time bestselling hardback book list. According tae publicity for the 2006 film adaptation, the book has sold more than 45 million copies an been translated intae 23 languages. It wis a Newbery Honor book for 1953, losin tae Secret of the Andes bi Ann Nolan Clark for the Newbery Medal. In 1970, White won the Laura Ingalls Wilder Medal, a major prize in the field o children's literature, for Charlotte's Web, along wi his first children's book, Stuart Little, published in 1945. Seth Lerer, in his book Children’s Literature, finds that Charlotte represents female authorship an creativity, an compares her tae other female chairacters in children's literature sic as Jo March in Little Women an Mary Lennox in The Secret Garden. Nancy Larrick brings tae attention the "startling note of realism" in the opening line, "Where's Papa going with that Ax?"
Illustrator Henry Cole expressed his deep childhood appreciation o the chairacters an story, an calls Garth Williams' illustrations full o "sensitivity, warmth, humor, and intelligence." Illustrator Diana Cain Bluthenthal states that Williams' illustrations inspired an influenced her.
There is an unabridged audio book read bi White himself which reappeared decades after it had originally been recorded. Newsweek writes that White reads the story "without artifice and with a mellow charm," and that "White also has a plangency that will make you weep, so don't listen (at least, not to the sad parts) while driving." Joe Berk, president o Pathway Sound, had recorded Charlotte's Web wi White in White's neighbor's house in Maine (which Berk describes as an especially memorable experience) an released the book in LP. Bantam released Charlotte’s Web alongside Stuart Little on CD in 1991, digitally remastered, havin acquired the two o them for rather a large amount.
In 2005, a school teacher in California conceived o a project for her class in which they would send out hundreds o drawings o speeders (each representin Charlotte’s child Aranea going out intae the world so that she can return an tell Wilbur o what she has seen) wi accompanyin letters; they ended up visitin a large number o parks, monuments, an museums, an were hosted bi an/or prompted responses from celebrities an politicians sic as John Travolta an then-First Lady Laura Bush.
In 2003, Charlotte's Web wis listed at number 170 on the BBC's The Big Read poll o the UK's 200 "best-loved novels." A 2004 study found that Charlotte's Web wis a common read-aloud book for third-graders in schools in San Diego County, California. Based on a 2007 online poll, the National Education Association named the book ane o its "Teachers' Top 100 Books for Children." It wis ane o the "Top 100 Chapter Books" o all time in a 2012 poll bi School Library Journal.

The colour reid haes aaways been positive in the Roushie cultur. The wird red (красный, krasny) is etymologically relatit wi the Roushie wirds for vera guid an bonnie. This can an aa be seen in Moscow’s Red Square an the Roushie Orthodox festivity, Red Easter.
It is said that the reid field is seembolism o the bluid that haes been spilled bi wirkers an farmers. It honors the red flag o the Paris Commune o 1871. The ideology o communism can be seen frae the flag. The red starn an hammer an sickle represent communism an socialism. The flag o the Soviet Union consistit o a plain red flag. A gowd hammer is crossed wi a gowd sickle which are placed beneath o a gowd-bordered red starn. This seembol is then placed in the upper left canton o the reid flag.
The hammer seembolizes the naition's industrial wirkers (proletarians) while the sickle seembolizes the naition's agricultural wirkers (peasants)—who thegither formed the state. The red starn representit the rule o the Communist Pairty. The back side o the flag is offeecially juist reid, athoot the seembols. Housomeivver, in practice, the flag wis uisually made through an through an sicweys the seembols uisually appeared on the reverse side an in the reverse order.
The final design o the flag wis adoptit in 1980. The design wis kept the same except that the backgrund colour wis chynged. The colour wis brichtened frae a near-burgundy crimson tae a licht tae medium reid.

Still ithers, siclike G.W.S.
