"In this captivating and inspiring volume more than 100 leaders from
the arts, sciences, business, and politics recall a children's book
that they loved and discuss its impact on their lives. Insightful,
funny, and often surprising, the contributions illuminate the lives of
a fascinating range of people and introduce readers to a selection of
the best books for the young. Each essay is accompanied by an excerpt
and illustrations from the selected book and an informative background
essay by Anita Silvey."

Interestingly, "Charlotte's Web" has not one, but two entries!
(Written by Louis Sachar and Eric Rohmann.)
She's touring the country to talk about it - see here:
