What’s the capital of Pennsylvania? Well if your name is
Fern Arable, the answer is “Wilbur.” Have you read Charlotte’s Web by
E.B. White? Mr. Arable, a farmer, is about to get rid of a runt piglet but his
hand is stayed by the saddened, tear-stained face of his daughter Fern. She is
given the piglet to raise and what follows is a beloved, Newberry Award winning
children’s book read by many since 1952. Take a gander at it if you haven’t
read it yet. And when you’re done, take a peek at Little Pink Pup by
Johanna Kerby (c.2010). It’s a true story of a runt piglet, Pink, raised by – a
dachshund. Come borrow both books from the Library, temporarily located
in the lower level of Town Hall on 83 Mountain Road. Questions? Call us at
