Great book for children  May 28, 2011

Rating StarRating StarRating StarRating StarRating Star

Stuart Little is about a mouse who was born to a normal human family. It is a wonderful novel that appeals to children because of its curious blend of fantasy and reality. The other main character was Snowbell, the mean and horrible cat. This story helps children to learn to use determination in order to overcome obstacles they might face in life. I would recommend this textbook because it's encouraging no matter how small or tall you are.






Stuart Little: 5 out of 5 stars based on 1 user reviews.

Summary

A paperback edition of E.B. White's classic novel about one small mouse on a very big adventure! With black and white illustrations.

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?

"Endearing for young and old, full of wit and wisdom and amusement." - H.

Author Biography

E. B. White was born in Mount Vernon, New York, in 1899, and went to ther public schools there. He graduated from Cornell University in 1921, worked in New York for a year, and then traveled about. After five or six years trying many sorts of jobs, plus a year or two of unemployment, he found work with The New Yorker; then in its infancy. The connection proved a happy one and resulted in a steady output of satirical sketches, poems, and editorials. Many of these were unsigned, and some were published over the initials E.B.W. In 1938 he went to the country and wrote essays every month for Harper's magazine. Mr. White found writing difficult and bad for one's health, but he kept at it even so. He would have liked, more than anything, to be a poet. The poets, he thought, are the great ones. He began Stuart Little in the hope of amusing a six-year-old niece of his, but before he had finished it she had growth up and was reading Hemingway.
