Another movie/book tie-in sees the slightly less violent and much more serene Charlotte's web spinning its way onto Nintendo's DS.

Playing as Wilbur the pig or Templeton the rat, you're drawn into a variety of tasks as you explore four worlds, including Zuckerman's Barn and the County Fair, each containing a selection of challenging levels. Along the way, you'll meet and interact with characters from the movie including Charlotte, who needs help in finding her missing spider hatchlings and Gussy the goose, who's lost her goslings.

It's all harmless, family friendly fun, with a platforming feel that offers a sizeable story mode to keep kids happy for hours. And with more arcade mini-games to keep coming back to, fans of the film and book alike will love it.
