This is the first children's book by the distinguished author E.B. White. Stuart Little, the hero, is a mouse in the family of Frederick C. Little and is a debonair little character with a shy, engaging manner and a somewhat philosophical turn of mind. He is a great help around the house, and everybody except Snowbell the cat likes him a great deal. In spite of his small size, Stuart gets around in the world, riding a Fifth Avenue bus, racing (and winning in) a sailboat in Central Park, teaching school for a day, and so on. His size--just over two inches--does give him some trouble now and then, like the time he was rolled up in the window shade, or when he got dumped into a garbage scow. But on the whole his life is a happy one. His great adventure comes when, at the age of seven, he sets out in the world to seek his dearest friend, Margalo, a beautiful little bird who stayed for a few days in the Littles' Boston fern. It is on this search that we leave Stuart, going north in his little car, sure he is heading in the right direction.
In this special gift-book edition of a beloved classic, renowned artist Rosemeary Wells has lovingly added delicate watercolor to the original black-and-white drawings by Garth Williams. Stuart Little, small in size only, has the indomitable spirit of a heroic figure, and his story, funny and tender and exciting by turns, will be read, reread, and love by young and old.

Alright so I've always treasured the movie and loved it since childhood but I've never read the book. I'm glad now that I didn't read the book cos I really felt disappointed reading this particular book now like it ruined my whole expectations. I really had a high expectations regarding this book and i always prefered books over movies; but this will be the first time that I supports the movie instead of this book. The ending feels like so unfair, like something is missing. I'm really not satisfied reading this and was searching for part 2 but I realised that this is the only book. I rated 2 stars because it relates with my childhood, it helped me to look forward and I also wanted to be like stuart. It's kinda fancy to watch him ride cars, ride boat. Anyways I'm ending up here. Thanks.
