Books on Film: DiCamillo on Charlotte’s Web
It’s not my favorite book for children, it’s just my favorite book for people.
-Kate DiCamillo
Something must be up with my factors of 10 book anniversary calendar. I was not aware that 2012 marks the 60th anniversary of E.B. White’s Charlotte’s Web until I came across this video featuring Kate DiCamillo sharing her thoughts on the book. Always fun to hear a great author talk about a classic.
