In Charlotte's Web, Fern adopts a runt piglet and names him Wilbur. Runts are usually killed because the mother might not have enough milk to feed all of the piglets, so Fern raises him herself. Wilbur lives on a farm next door to Fern's house, and she visits him as he grows up. Wilbur makes friends with all of the farm animals, including Charlotte the spider. When the farmer decides to kill Wilbur for meat, Charlotte writes different words in her web that make people come to the farm to see the famous pig, so he is saved.
