Cassie made a good point. I think good writing is as important as a good story. It does not have to be "literature" to be well written. Even though Edith Warton is "literature," I could read her for the story, but her prose is so beautiful that I could read her just for the beautiful poetic prose. There are other writers, who are not deemed "literature" that write extremely well and tell a good story.
Charlotte's Web is very well written and a great story to boot.
