"STUART LITTLE is a story about the adventures of the youngest son of Mr and Mrs Frederick C. Little of New York City. He is only about two inches tall, looks 'very much like a mouse in every way,' and has the 'pleasant shy manners of a mouse'. Except for his size and his appearance, however, he is clearly a human being living in a full-scale world. In some episodes he seems to be a boy, in others a young adolescent. At the end he is a very young man." Scott Elledge, E.B. White's Biographer.
In spite of his small size, Stuart gets around a bit, riding a Fifth Avenue bus with some aplomb, racing a sailboat in Central Park, teaching school for a day. His size does give him some trouble now and then, like the time he was rolled up in the window shade. His greatest adventure starts when he sets out in the world to seek his dearest friend, a bird named Margalo. Stuart Little has the adventurousness, the great purpose, and the indomitable spirit of a heroic figure. His story is grand.

Work Description
Stuart Little is no ordinary mouse. Born to a family of humans, he lives in New York City with his parents, his older brother George, and Snowbell the cat. Though he's shy and thoughtful, he's also a true lover of adventure.
Stuart's greatest adventure comes when his best friend, a beautiful little bird named Margalo, disappears from her nest. Determined to track her down, Stuart ventures away from home for the very first time in his life. He finds adventure aplenty. But will he find his friend?
