A classic with beloved characters. This is however my least favourite of E.B. White's books as I found the ending quite abrupt that left a lot of unanswered questions.

After reading Charlotte's web and loving it, I figured I should give this one a try. Unfortunately, I must say I HATED HATED this book. Nothing makes sense, is Stuart a mouse? Or does he _look_ like a mouse? Why did they think having a cat…

Stuart Little by E.B White is about a mouse named Stuart Little on the quest to find his lost friend Margalo who was warned that one of Snowball the cat’s friends is going to eat her. I enjoyed reading this book, the book is very enjoyable…

The writing of E. B. White is a delightful thing. Bits of child-story are mixed with elegant and graceful prose. Throughout the book the words are crisp, efficient, and strung together into the most sublime and dear sentences. Many of the…

I love the concept of a mouse living with humans, I really like how a mouse actually could be helpful living with us, like how he rescued his mothers wedding ring.

Story seems all over the place and the ending really made no sense. I read this to my children for bedtime and they had so many unanswered questions. What about his family that he left? What happened to his bird friend that ran away?

This is one of those books that I never read as a child. As a parent, I thought I'd gear up to read it to my kids... and became unsure as to WHY exactly it's a classic. I find the situation kind of weird, and not that compelling. It's a…

Similarly to the commenter before me this was among the first books I ever remember reading around 1954 in a grammar school library. Loved it then and love it now.

This is probably the first book I read (as a kid) that had an such an ambiguous ending. It was mindblowing at the time. After rereading it as an adult, I picked up sly messages I missed previous (Stuart teaches prejudices against mice are…

Is this the first book for kids with ADHD? The story is jarringly disjointed with little holding it together and even less holding the reader. The prose is sweet, but why is Stuart stopping to fulfill his previously-unbeknownst dream of…

Okay, so now I've got my little mouse character out on the road looking for his friend the bird, and--oh, this looks like a great place to stop. End of story.
