bildungsroman: In literary criticism, a Bildungsroman, novel of formation, novel of education, or coming-of-age story is a literary genre that focuses on the psychological and moral growth of the protagonist from youth to adulthood (coming of age),[3] in which character change is extremely important.

e.g., Wilbur, the main character of Charlotte's Web, changed to become smart when resting after the excitement and strain of the fair. He asked Charlotte, ''Why did you do all this for me?''
