Stuart Little

Thoroughly enjoyable

My son, who is a reluctant reader, is thoroughly enjoying this book. I'd highly recommend it. What a great adventure!

Narration brings it to life.

Stuart Little, the little mouse who suspends disbelief, is brought to life by Julie Harris's beautiful narration. Thankfully so, because my children listened to it over and over throughout their childhood! Two of our favorite passages brought to life: "Live and learn", muttered Stuart tartly; and, "A substitute, a SUBSTITUTE!" Teaches children that everything in life is not tied up in neat little packages and finished in 30 minute increments, and that things don't always turn out like you think they will (did YOUR mother give birth to a mouse?) If you have trouble getting into the book just by reading it, spring for the unabridged version narrated by Julie Harris. You won't regret it.

Freaky book.

It would seem normal, but when you read it Stuart is really human. Different from the movie, he was not adopted, but born a human who looks like a mouse.

Awful

This book is one of the worst I've ever read! It is just useless and boring. I don't understand why this was turned into a movie because it is just such a horrible book! So please don't waste your time on it!

Fun and Entertaing

This book is exciting from the moment that you start. Poor Stuart Little is always smaller than everybody around him. But that makes him all the more better. He is a tough mouse with a lot of determination. If you liked the Stuart Little movies, then you will love the book.

Awesome!

Reviewed by a 5-year old boy. He absolutely loves this book and wishes there was a sequel!

it was so cool

this was the best book ever.it was about Stuart trys to find his best friend ever(Marglo)so he has to go throw obsticuls to find her.i say go get the book and read it now!WOW!

slightly surreal new classic

I suppose as charlotte's web had a series of talking animals so a talking mouse born to a human isn't that difficult to entertain.
My daughter clearly enjoyed the story and didn't question the lack of logic or somewhat abrupt chapter/episode endings. But then she didn't demand it to be re-read again and again as she has with other books.
I never read this before reading it to her so had no sentiment towards it...it is a nice children's book but can't say it would be a favourite. Still better than much else out there - though not sure that is saying much.

Man This Book is Awwwesome!

This book is great.This book is Great because it has some parts you wouldn't even get but when you get farther you would know about it then.It had a part when you would probably thinking a lot.This book is most.y about Stuart's life and I know because the title is Stuart Little of course.I liked this book because Stuart's family cared for him.Another reason is because they wanted Stuart to be there for the rest of his life.

A tiny mouse with a big spirit of adventure. To be read and re-read

A tiny mouse with a big senseo of adventiure takes a bite out of the big apple to find a true friend. Ahhhhh.

Stuarts Adventure

Stuart Little by E.B. White is one of the best books I have ever read because it is full with adventure. It is about this mouse named Stuart. He lives with his family in central park at New York City. His family is his brother George, his mom and dad, Mr. and Mrs. Little. One day he was driving along he meet a bird with a bad wing her name was Margolo. Stuart invited Margolo. One day Margolo ran away Stuart goes on an adventure to find her. Want to know if Stuart finds her? Read the book! Also if you like stories with adventure Stuart little is just for you.

Must read

This book is fantasy. It is about a family and a talking mouse named Stuart. Stuart has trouble because he's so little. Stuart has to find his friend because she ran away from home and he runs into problems. This book is very adventurous, shocking, and funny.

A reviewer

My son and I love books about talking and funny animals and this is one of the best. Stuart Little is smart, creative and daring and he makes for a great children's hero.

A good book for your library

Stuart Little is the story of a tiny mouse and his adventures. The story is full of interesting things. The writing fits well any age. I loved reading Stuart Little.

31 years later, i rate this #1

i was browsing B&N and came across Stuart Little, and decided to give back to it. the fact is that this was the first book in my life that i found myself 'needing to turn the pages.' i'm now a professional writer. yes, buy this book for your children, it is quite special.

Best Book Ever

This book is about a mouse born into a normal human-being family.Stuart is very helpful because he can fit in small places where the rest of the Littles can't.He can do that because he is 2-inches tall. One day when Margalo flew away(a family pet which was his best friend)Stuart went north to look for her. He travaled in a car for his size that Doctor Carey built himself then gave it to Stuart. On his search he helps out people on the way. He asks almost everyone to look, but it was no use. He is still up north today looking for his best friend Margalo.

great

the book was so good it was like i was there. i would of liked to read it over and over

A Tiny Tale

What if you were a mouse that lived with a human family? Well that is what Stuart Little is about. The book takes you on Stuart's (main character) wild adventures in hid house and in New York City. it also shows his daily activities. Stuart¿s favorite things are boats. He even got to race one. Also he becomes a substitute teacher for a day. My favorite part is when he gets thrown out in the trash and his friend bird, Margalo, comes and saves him. But on all of Stuart's adventures he is looking for Margalo, because she flew away after she saved him and Stuart wants to be with her again. Also he meets a human the same size as him. Her name is Harriet. He had a date with her but it didn¿t go well. Then she left him. But Stuart continued his journey looking for Margalo. I liked this book because it was funny and it held my interest. I would recommend this book to young readers.

Short Success

Stuart Little is probably the best book I have ever read.The author(E.B.White)had done an amazing job on this book,because he describes Stuart and his family so well.I could make a movie in my head the book is so good. Stuart Little is a small mouse with a big problem.His family doesn't look and act like Stuart at all like Stuart.To tell you the truth,he looks alot like a mouse. Then just when he feels all alone he finds a friend.A little bird named Margalo.But the family cat is out to get her.So she hast to leave.Stuart doesn't know where she is?Will he find her?Read to find out. I rated this book a five because it was suspesful and funny at the same time.Read this book as soon as possible.

A Great Book!!!!!!!

I thought the book was good.It was funny. It made me laugh. I thought it was both interesting and surprising because I never knew what was going to happen next.
