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?
小老鼠Stuart很害羞卻富哲學頭腦,身小膽大,不畏於獨自乘公車遊逛、在中央公園賽船、在學校教書……。高不過二吋的他,常會發生一些窘事,例如被捲入窗簾或被丟棄在垃圾船下,而真正的冒險要算是去尋訪他的美麗小鳥朋友Mangalo。Stuart Little冒險犯難的精神,不但樹立了不折不扣的英雄象徵,也激發出製作電影"美國鼠譚"的靈感,亦是電影「一家之鼠」原著。
美國散文名家 E. B. White 以愛護動物,發揮人道關懷為主旨,寫了三本童書,公認為兒童文學經典之作;Stuart Little《小不點司圖爾特》、The Trumpet of the Swan《天鵝的喇叭》以及Charlotte's Web《夏綠蒂的網》。
