The Hendersonville Performing Arts Company presents Charlotte's Web, adapted by Joseph Robinette and based on the book by E.B. White.

New York Times best-selling author Will Schwalbe asks: Why is it that we read? Is it to pass time? To learn something new? For the author, reading is not only a way to entertain himself, but also to make sense of the world - to become a better person and to find the answers to the big (and small) questions about how to live. Each chapter of BOOKS FOR LIVING focuses on a particular book. The author's recommendations for reading range from Herman Melville to Anne Lamott, Anne Morrow Lindbergh to Haruki Murakami,  E.B. White to Paula Hawkins.  A delightful celebration of reading, BOOKS FOR LIVING is a treasure for everyone who loves books and loves to hear the answer to the question: "What are you reading?"
