Charlotte's Web is a fantasy novel that tells the story of Fern and her pig, Wilbur's, life. Wilbur teams up with Charlotte, a spider that tells Wilbur that his life will end as bacon on someone's plate and Templeton, a rat, who only focuses on himself, to escape Wilbur's death.
A really neat thing to do in the classroom would be to have students pick out what could and could not happen in this book. You could read this book at the beginning of a Fantasy Novel unit. Have your students really examine this book and see what fantasy means.
