Rating: Summary: Where is version 2? Review: It ended like a cliff hanger I want to know if there is a version 2. It was a great book but too short. My favorite part was when Stewart said "5 drops" to the gas station man. My 5 year old sister said, "I loved the story Stewart Little and I wish I could have it every day I wish I could read it over and over. I wish I could read it was exciting and fun." I'm a 7 year old boy.
Rating: Summary: It was the best book ever read to me or that I ever read. Review: I was read this book in elementery school. Then when I had my first child I bought it. My oldest three children love it as much as I do. But, when I got divorced, I lost a lot of stuff. Including that book. So, I am getting it again for my youngest. If you have a chance to read this book, Do! It shows that families can be as different as neighbors. And still get through it.
Rating: Summary: A Pure Masterpiece Review: E.B. White's books shaped my childhood and continue to affect me even today. The first book I ever remember reading and re-reading is Charlotte's Web, but Stuart Little is close behind. I first read Stuart when I was 7 or 8 and I distinctly remember exactly where I was and how I felt as though it were yesterday. Any child (or adult) who has ever felt a little bit different from their peers will identify with White's characters...and draw strength from them. His books convey tremendously powerful messages in simple, touching prose: it's okay to be different, and love and friendship are more important than anything in the world. If all children learned these lessons early in life, the world would be a better place. Thanks to Mr. White for teaching them to me, over and over again!

Rating: Summary: A mouse born by humans. Review: This is a good story. I like the different chapters and the different adventures Stuart is always on.My favorite chapter is when Stuart runs away from home to find his friend, the bird Margalo. He always does stuff for people. I like how he is always kind. The book is funny and I like it and so does my family.
Rating: Summary: All-time classic children's book Review: I can't recall how old I was when I first read this beautiful book. Nine, perhaps, or maybe ten? I am 40 now, thinking back wistfully to what it was like to encounter such a moving tale as a young child. The illustrations -- so perfectly representative of the text -- are still fixed in my mind. I had a sailboat of my own, and so identifed with Stuart's Central park boating adventure. I had never connected with anything else in book form the way I connected with Stuart Little, and when I was done, I was amazed that a book could affect me the way it did. Only a child can enter so completely into Stuart's miniaturized world. Sadly, I know I can't read this story again with anywhere near the same enjoyment precisely because it is a children's book. Great non-children's works, like the Odyssey or Anna Karenina, can of course be appreciated ever more as one grows older, but the joy one experiences as a child encountering a character like Stuart Little vanishes forever as one passes into adolesence and then adulthood, and can never be relived. This is one of the greatest children's books ever written -- encourage your children to read it
Rating: Summary: My favorite children's book, period! Review: The only word for this book is "enchanting." You and your children can get lost in the wonderous world of Stuart Little and his adventures... but it's more than that. The use of language is beautiful beyond words. Even if you don't have kids, you might just want to read it. Stuart's day as a substitute teacher is so classic, if you read it, you'll never forget it. No matter how old your kids are, read this to them! Don't forget to stop and enjoy the timeless Garth Williams illustrations. I think this book would be on my own personal "desert-island list"
Rating: Summary: Not just for children Review: My daughter started reading this book as she was sitting next to me on the couch. I looked over her shoulder and started reading. This book is GREAT!!! We decided to read it out loud as a family because we liked it so much
Rating: Summary: Stuart is a real person in a family but he is a mouse! Review: This book is very funny and full of adventures for little
Stuart. Stuart is a mouse born in a regular family and he
has many adventures as he tries to live the life of a regular boy! He can talk to people and is a regular family
member but HE IS A MOUSE! It is a very funnny but also a very exciting story. A MUST READ for ages 7 and up.
I am a 10 year old boy and I loved it!
Rating: Summary: The Lucky Mouse Review: Stuart Little E.B. White Stuart Little represents how people should get treated in life, equally. Stuart is a tiny mouse and an actual family adopts him. He starts out really scared because they are so much bigger than him and he has no idea what they are going to do with him. The Little family gave him a chance to live the life of a real person and Stuart had some wild adventures along the way. Sure there are some disadvantages of being a mouse, but he made every second worth while. Stuart is like an actual son to them because they loved him in every aspect of life. I loved this book because it showed how everyone should be treated in life. If everyone were treated equal throughout the world, I would be in heaven. I gave it a 5 star because it kept me in the reading mood. I don't really like to read that much, but Stuart Little made me give reading a second chance. Stuart Little is one of the most amazing books because it shows you how lucky you truly are to be living like a human being.
