Summary of Charlotte’s web intrigue
Via Wikipedia
After a little girl named Fern Arable pleads for the life of the stream of a porcelet litter, a spring morning, her father gives him the pig to feed, and she names Wilbur. She treats him as a pet, but a month later, smaller, Wilbur is sold to Fern uncle, Homer Zuckerman. In Zuckerman’s farmyard, Wilbur aspires to the company but is snubbed by other animals. He is friends with a Grange spider named Charlotte, whose web is in a door overlooking the speaker of Wilbur. When Wilbur discovers that he is high for slaughter, she promises to burst a guaranteed plan to save her life. The fern is often seated on a stool, listening to the conversation of animals, but in history, while it begins to mature, it finds other interests.
Over the summer, Charlotte is thinking about how to save Wilbur. Finally, it offers a plan which it proceeds with the implementation. Reasoning that Zuckerman would not kill a famous pork, Charlotte weaves short words or sentences praising Wilbur in her canvas, making barn, and pig, a tourist attraction, with the canvas considered a miracle. At the County Fair, to which he is accompanied by Charlotte and the Templeton rat, Wilbur fails to win the blue ribbon, but receives a special prize for judges. Charlotte, who would then die like the spiders of the barn in the fall, hears the presentation on the public speech system and knows that the price means that Zuckerman will cherish Wilbur as long as the pig lives and will never massacre it for its meat. She does not come back to the farm with Wilbur and Templeton, remaining at the Fair Champ to die, but allows Wilbur to take with him his egg bag, from which her children will hatch in the spring.
Wilbur is waiting for winter, a winter that he would not have survived but for Charlotte. Delighted when the tiny spiders hatch, it is devastated when most leave the barn. Three remain to occupy a residence in the old door of Charlotte. Happy to find new friends, Wilbur names one of them Nellie, while the other two name Joy and Aranea. Other generations of spiders maintain him company in the following years.
