    Fans of such farmyard fables as Babe will love this charming animated adaptation of E B White's children's classic, one of the few features produced by celebrated cartoon team Hanna-Barbera (Tom and Jerry, Top Cat, The Flintstones). The critters are brought to life by some superb voice-overs as Charlotte the spider (Debbie Reynolds) joins with Templeton the rat (Paul Lynde) to save petrified porker Wilbur (Henry Gibson). The animation isn't up to Disney's standards, and the Sherman brothers' songs are rather hit and miss. It's pleasing to look at, though, so a good time should be had by all.
