About this title: Stuart Little, the Little's second son, looks very much like a mouse--he has whiskers, a long tail, and is only a little more than two inches tall. Dapper, elegant, and heroic, Stuart is content with his life in New York City, a dangerous yet exciting place for a mouse. Then he meets Margalo, a pretty bird whom the Littles had found half-dead on their doorstep and revived. When Margalo leaves without telling anyone, Stuart sets off in a little car to search for the love of his life.

"Stuart Little had been born and became a part of a family called the Little's. It was very wierd how a mouse had humans as parents but to him it was perfectly normal. The way the author wrote this book was in a way that shows step by step how his life went being with his new found family. I love how the author made Stuart fond of adventure. This helps to show the one way he is different from his family. The lesson the author is basicly telling is that however small you may be, you will always be included. In this book Stuart was not really left out from family activities. This is mainly because family always stays together and that is what the Little's are. To sum this book up Stuart may have not been human like the rest of his family but they accepted him and loved him as their loved one and while being a part of this family he still loved adventure and used it mainly as an upper advantage. Especially when he had to save hid bird friend nammed Margalo."
"Why did Hollywood f--- up the movie so much? Why?!?
Err, okay, on to the actual review. I haven't read this book since I was about nine or ten (I want to re-read it but haven't been able to find a copy >Charlotte's Web. What can I say? Maybe I'm not an E.B. White person."
""Following a broken repair line north, I have come upon some wonderful places," continued the repairman. "Swamps where cedars grow and turtles wait on logs but not for anything in particular; fields bordered by crooked fences broken by years of standing still; orchards so old they have forgotten where the farmhouse is. In the north I have eaten my lunch in pastures rank with ferns and junipers, all under fair skies with a wind blowing. My business has taken me into spruce woods on winter nights where the snow lay deep and soft, a perfect place for a carnival of rabbits. I have sat at peace on the freight platforms of railroad junctions in the north, in the warm hours and with the warm smells. I know fresh lakes in the north, undisturbed except by fish and hawk and, of course, by the Telephone Company, which has to follow its nose. I know all these places well. They are a long way from here - don't forget that. And a person who is looking for something doesn't travel very fast.""
"Another wonderful book by E.B. White. I enjoyed reading this to my son, and I especially like it for two reasons: first, the simple beauty of the language, showing that White understands how to see the beautiful in the world around us, even while his hero goes through his own trials. Second, I liked that White did not provide a traditional narrative resolution. The book plays against the contemporary fashion of tying everything up. That's not to suggest the ending isn't satisfying. On the contrary, it's fantastic, as he closes with some of the most beautiful imagery in the entire book. I didn't enjoy it quite as much as Charlotte's Web, but it was definitely worth the read."
