Charlotte's Web
White, E. B. / Williams, Garth
FIC .336 WHI
An affectionate, sometimes bashful pig named Wilbur befriends a spider named Charlotte, who lives in the rafters
above his pen. A prancing, playful bloke, Wilbur is devastated when he learns of the destiny that befalls all those
of porcine persuasion. Determined to save her friend, Charlotte spins a web that reads "Some Pig," convincing
the farmer and surrounding community that Wilbur is no ordinary animal and should be saved. In this story of
friendship, hardship, and the passing on into time, E.B. White reminds us to open our eyes to the wonder and
miracle often found in the simplest of things.

Chicken Sunday
Polacco, Patricia
FIC .111 POL
Polacco--in the role of young narrator--introduces another cast of characters from her fondly remembered
childhood. Brothers Stewart and Winston often invite the girl to join them and their Gramma Eula Mae--whose
choir singing is "like slow thunder and sweet rain"--at the Baptist church and to come for Miss Eula's bountiful
chicken dinner. When the children hear Miss Eula longing for the fancy Easter bonnet in Mr. Kodinsky's hat shop,
they plot to raise the money to buy it for her. Sharing her own family tradition, the narrator teaches the boys how
to decorate Russian "pysanky" eggs, that both turn a profit and touch the heart of the crotchety immigrant
hatmaker. Without being heavy-handed, Polacco's text conveys a tremendous pride of heritage as it brims with
rich images from her characters' African American and Russian Jewish cultures. Her vibrant pencil-and-wash
illustrations glow--actual family photographs have been worked into several spreads. Other telling
details--Russian icons, flowing choir robes, Mr. Kodinsky's concentration camp tattoo--further embellish this
moving story--a tribute to the strength of all family bonds.
