Charlotte’s Web is based on a homonymous children’s book, but it reminds me of The Happy Prince. Or Harry Potter. The protagonist is a nominal golden boy who is and does nothing special, yet everyone around him — including those who are more intelligent, talented, and interesting — goes way out of their way to convince him and the audience that he really is so very fucking special.

In this post I attempt to pay tribute to one of my favorite writers and one of my favorite books. Writing lessons from Charlotte's Web by E.B. White.

E.B.White

The entire kids’ publishing industry needs this pinned above their desks.

In fact, anyone working with or writing for kids could do with reading it.

E.B. White, author of 'Charlotte's Web' on what adults get wrong when writing for children.

Anybody who shifts gears when he writes for children is likely to wind up stripping his gears. But I don't want to evade your question. There is a difference between writing for children and for adults. I am lucky, though, as I seldom seem to have my audience in mind when I am at work. It is as though they didn't exist. Anyone who writes down to children is simply wasting his time. You have to write up, not down. Children are demanding. They are the most attentive, curious, eager, observant, sensitive, quick, and generally congenial readers on earth. They accept, almost without question, anything you present them with, as long as it is presented honestly, fearlessly, and clearly. I handed them, against the advice of experts, a mouse- boy, and they accepted it without a quiver. In Charlotté's Web, I gave them a literate spider and they took that

Some writers for children deliberately avoid using words they think a child doesn't know. This emasculates the prose and, I suspect, bores the reader. Children are game for anything. I throw them hard words, and they backhand them over the net. They love words that give them a hard time, provided they are in a context that absorbs their attention. I'm lucky again: my own vocabulary is small, compared to most writers, and I tend to use the short words. So it's no problem for me to write for children. We have a lot in common.

This artwork by @kellybrownsays (on another platform) is perfect and speaks volumes!

A (political?) cartoon with a likeness of VP candidate Tim Walz wearing a blue shirt and a blue baseball cap with the phrase "Make America Happy Again" printed on the front. Walz is wearing glasses and has a huge smile on his face while holding a small pink pig in his arms (who also appears to be smiling).

Behind him, a few red, white and blue buntings/banners are hanging over his head. There's a large spider's web hanging from a couple of the banners. The spider has written a message into its web that says "SOME VP", in an apparent nod to the children's book "Charlotte's Web" by E. B. White (where a spider named Charlotte writes "SOME PIG" into its web in an attempt to draw attention to a special pig).

Cartoon image of smiling candidate for Vice President Tim Walz. He’s wearing casual blue T-shirt and a blue baseball cap. He’s holding a pig while standing underneath a rounded red, white, & blue banner. There is a spider web next to him with letters spelling out, “Some VP”. This is a play on the famous children’s book, Charlotte’s Webb by E.B. White

This is NOT the first time #SearsIsland has been targeted with a destructive energy project! Tell #GovernorJanetMills to build the #WindTerminal on #MackPoint, instead of Sears Island. There is federal funding available, so there's NO REASON to be CHEAP (Mills has balked because #Maine would have to clean up #industrial #pollution at Mack Point -- which should be cleaned up anyways!

"The possible industrial development of the island has been a point of controversy for many years. Writer #EBWhite (#CharlottesWeb), a resident of nearby Brooklin, Maine, noted in a 1975 essay for the New Yorker that he had attended an evening forum about a #CentralMainePower Company proposal to construct a #NuclearPower plant on Sears Island. White reported to New Yorker readers that the Central Maine Power Company 'feels very good about nuclear generating plants, is not worried about #radiation or accidents.' [Or rise in sea temperature from heated wastewater causing environmental damage, apparently]. In response to a goat farmer, their spokesman acknowledged #radioactive 'iodine can contaminate milk... [b]ut he was cheerful about the prospect. You would simply put the animals on a controlled diet, he said, and after about forty days the radioactivity would be gone.' [#Hormesis anyone?] Facing #LocalOpposition, the plant was not built."

I love E.B. White. Re-reading Charlotte's Web made me cry.

Second or #ThirdGrade...Not sure Dept: But I do remember consecutive library #StoryTimes. We were all held spellbound sitting round the carpet-like-a-campfire by our elementary school librarian's sense of timing and drama. First she hit us with a reading of #WhereTheWildThingsAre (Pictures!), then came #CharlottesWeb and finally #AWrinkleInTime. That was the clincher. She was...a genius.We were lucky enough to have had several of those...

🎵"I write the words that make the barnyard sing.
I write words of love, like 'Some Pig!'
I write the words in my web that catch the flies.
I write the words. I write the words."🎵
