E. B. White died in 1985, but it was quite a treat to hear him narrate this 50th anniversary audiobook. I'm guessing it's a port of White's 1980 cassette recording. The only thing missing are the illustrations by Garth Williams.

This was a re-read (many times over) from my own childhood and my boys' childhoods.

Written by E.B. White, it sure does show his prowess. The language used is perfect. As a student in writing mastery, I learned much from this book. It is an awesome book, but, it's not really enjoyable as children's book. I guess children will find it rather boring.
