Charlotte's Web by E. B. White. It was an interesting book considering it was the first time I read it. I've seen the movie multiple times when I was younger. The movie does not compare to the book.

This book took place during the genocide of Jewish people, meaning that all the Jewish people in Germany were being tossed in concentration camps as if they were meaningless and being killed.
