I've been noticing that ever sice Charlotte showed up Wilbur's been super curious. I mean he's always been curious with the other other animals but there's just something different about him and Charlotte.
In the beginning of the book Fern took carfe of Wilbur like she was his mother. She fed him from a bottle and took care of him. She even put him in a stroller with her doll!
Some people may seem freindship between but I see something different. I see motherhood. And right now this motherhood is being passed on to Charlotte. Now she's the one acting like Wilbur's mom. Sometimes Charolotte would correct Wilbur in what he's doing, she makes him feel better when he's sad, and she teaches him lots of things.
It's sort of like a mother teaching her son about life because she know's that one day she's not going to be there and he has to learn how to take care of himself.
In the end we all know that Charlotte dies. And I think that Charlotte accomplished that goal of teaching Wilbur.
This sort of reminds me of me in a way. Mostly everybody in my neighborhood watched me grow up. They seen me when i was a little baby,to toddler, to I guess a teenager. And since they have watched me grow up they have a special admiration for me. And now Wilbur's all grown up and every body cares for him. They watched him grow and become a big, smart, nice, pig.
I totally agree with you Noemi. i think that Wilbur is just a questionable and curious person anyway. but once charlotte dies and wilbur has to learn to cope and raise her three leftover children, we see how he starts to grow up and charlottes children ask the question. maybe thats just the whole idea of the book; how certain ages or male and female play certain parts. i think that wilbur is the youngest character in the book, so he plays the one with all of the questions. but once the children come along, that role will be replaced by Charlotte's children, grandchildren, etc.
