The Story of Charlotte's Web: E. B. White's Eccentric Life in Nature and the Birth of an American Classic by Michael Sims. Sims’ engaging biography describes White’s comfort around animals that arose from being surrounded by farm animals during childhood, and later on as an adult at his own farm in Maine. Much of the book is a fascinating account of how the famous children’s story evolved over several years.
