Wilbur the Pig and his friends from Zuckerman's Farm return in this direct-to-video sequel to the animated feature Charlotte's Web, which was based on the beloved children's story by E.B. White. After the passing of his pal Charlotte the spider, Wilbur (voice of David Beron) befriends Cardigan (voice of Harrison Chad), a homesick lamb who has just arrived on the farm. Wilbur and Cardigan become the best of friends, but one day Cardigan disappears and Wilbur learns Farmer Zuckerman has sold the lamb. Afraid of the fate which may befall Cardigan, Wilbur teams up with Templeton the Rat (voice of Charlie Adler) and three of Charlotte's daughters, Nellie (voice of Amanda Bynes), Joy (voice of Anndi McAfee), and Aranea (voice of Maria Bamford), to bring him back home. ~ Mark Deming, All Movie Guide

Plot

The film opens up in springtime, about a year after Charlotte has passed on. Charlotte's three daughters, Joy, Aranea and Nellie, are now in the stages of adolescence, with Wilbur serving as a companion and mentor.

During this time, Wilbur befriends Cardigan, a newborn lamb that is looked down upon by the other lambs and the younger sheep of his flock because he has black wool. Wilbur takes Cardigan under his wing and shows him the farm, the ways of animal life, and dangers to look out for.

However, after only a few weeks, Zuckerman suddenly sells Cardigan to another farmer, so Wilbur, along with Charlotte's daughters and Templeton the Rat, set out to visit Cardigan and make sure he's okay.
