Chapter 11 Summary, by: Gabriela

Summary chapter 11

On chapter 11 the start of the day was foggy, but Charlotte’s web seemed beautiful. Each thread was decorated with dozens of tiny beads of water. Even Lurvy thought that it was cute. He was looking at the web when he noticed that in the web were two words that amazed him. It said: some pig. He called Mr. Zuckerman as quickly as he can. When Mr. Zuckerman saw the words in the web, he went to call Mrs. Zuckerman. At the start she thought that he was lying, but then she went with Mr. Zuckerman and Lurvy to see the miracle. Mrs. Zuckerman thought that the spider (Charlotte) was the miraculous animal. Charlotte was happy that her plan was working. She sat down at the side of the web admiring her plan, when a fly blundered into the web, beyond the word “pig”. But Charlotte took her away from the web and the fog lifted. Mr. Zuckerman was proud of Wilbur and he thought that he was a solid pig. He also said to Lurvy that Wilbur was smooth. Then, Mr. Zuckerman went to the minister’s house to explain him the miracle that happened. The minister advice Mr. Zuckerman to not tell anybody else the thing that happened. He would talk about that on his Sunday’s sermon. The minister asked Mr. Zuckerman if the pig had name. He said that his name was Wilbur and that his nice (Fern) raised him in a bottle and bought it to Mr. Zuckerman’s farm. But, before it was Sunday, the entire county knew the news. People miles away to see the miracle that happened. On the Zuckerman’s parking, they were millions of different kinds of cars. Farmers went from different places to see Wilbur hour after hour and to say that they never had seen a pig like Wilbur. Fern told one day to Mrs. Arable that Avery was going to capture Charlotte so Mrs. Arable send him to bed without eating supper as a punishment. Mr. Zuckerman was so busy attending Wilbur and the people that went to his farm that he didn’t have time to take care of the rest of the farm. Then, the minister said that if you need to watch carefully because around you they can be millions of miracles to discover. Fern felt happy that Charlotte’s plan was working and that Wilbur could be saved. She wished that she could be for a moment alone with Charlotte, Wilbur and the other animals of the barn.
