Happy 60th, Charlotte's Web!

Today is the 60th anniversary of the publication of the classic children's book Charlotte's Web by E.B. White.  Charlotte's Web was my favorite book all through elementary school, but I haven't reread it in a long time.  I am feeling inspired to read it again.  It's a wonderful book about loyalty and friendship and the power of the written word.
