When watching Charlottes Web, there were numerous similarities that stood out by reading the book and watching the movie. One area of overlap that made it obvious in comparison was at the beginning of the movie when Fern saves Wilbur’s life and promises him she is going to keep him alive. This area of overlap would be a message by reason because Fern is taking action by saving Wilbur. She he is showing her dad that she can take on a huge task by caring for him.

Another difference I noticed was the book never mentioned a particular setting while the movie created a specific setting in Somerset County. I would recommend the book and the movie to anybody who is looking to read a good fiction book with an inspiring message for the
