The Zuckerman family. My summer home is underneath Wilbur's trough. Wilbur originally came from the Arables, Dr Dorian is the local doctor and Henry Fussy is the boy that Fern Arable likes.
Wilbur. Fern Arable gave Wilbur his name when she saved him from being killed on his very first day of life. Babe is the name of the pig in the book the "Sheep-pig" by Dick King-Smith and both Squealer and Napoleon feature in the book "Animal Farm" by George Orwell.
An unhatched egg. She gave me the unhatched egg with the assumption that I would then leave the goslings alone - which of course I did...I never got a chance to do otherwise.
| There is a spider in the corner of the pig pen called Charlotte. How did I save Charlotte from becoming part of Avery Arable's insect collection? | The Rat's Story - "Charlotte's Web"
|
Caused Avery to break a rotten egg. The unhatched egg that Goose-oose-oose gave me was under the trough when Avery stood on it and caused the trough and consequently the egg to break. This gave off what I considered a quite pleasant smell, and the remains of the egg were delicious, although I had been saving it for a rainy day.
Some Pig. Crunchy and Pre-shrunk were words that I found at the dump below the apple orchard, but Charlotte said that neither were appropriate for the pig.
A piece of string. Wilbur thought he just had to jump in the air and web would automatically appear, but wanted the string to stop him hitting the ground so hard. Unfortunately he never tied the other end of the string to anything.
