Mr.
Zuckerman told Lurvy to paint the crate green and write on it with golden
colour ‘Zuckerman’s Famous Pig.’
Meanwhile Templeton searched around the dump for new word to be woven
on the web. He brought the word ‘crunchy’ Charlotte dislikes the word crunchy
as it would make Mr. Zuckerman think about crisp, crunchy bacon and tasty ham.
Templeton then brought the word’ Pre- shrunk’. Again Charlotte dismisses the
word as she didn’t want Zuckerman to think Wilbur as nicely filled and not all
shrunk up. Finally Templeton brought a soap box on which it ‘radiant’ was
written. Charlotte chose this word as she thought Wilbur to be radiant.
Wilbur was not feeling sleepy so he asked Charlotte to tell stories.
Charlotte told him a story about her cousin who built a web across a stream a
tiny fish got stuck in the web. Wilbur was surprised to listen how her cousin
managed to wrap and eat it. I spite of the fish thrashing wildly, Charlotte’s
cousin slipped in, dodged out yet threw threads around the fish and finally
succeeded.
Charlotte then told another story about her
other cousin who was an aeronaut. One of her cousins was a balloonist who stood
on her head and let enough thread to form balloon. Then she would let go the
thread and be lifted in the air. Wilbur was amused and surprised to listen to
different stories and slowly dozed to sleep.
