The Story Behind the Shape

Wilbur’s life begins with a steep ascent (↑↑) as he is saved by Fern and raised with love and safety as a bottle-fed baby. His fortune crashes (↓↓) when he is sold to the Zuckerman farm, becoming lonely and isolated before learning of the terrifying slaughter plan. Hope returns (↑↑) through Charlotte’s intervention, where words woven in a web bring him celebrity status and a safety-guaranteeing bronze medal. The journey concludes with a sharp emotional drop (↓) as Wilbur mourns the loss of his savior.
