3.0 out of 5 stars Stuart Little Book and Charm, June 2, 2008

By	C. J. Eaton - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This is a great value and a charming edition of a classic. The "charm" is really a necklace of a boat -- just like the boat that Stuart Little navigated. Children will love the many adventures of Stuart. The necklace is an added bonus that the girls will love.

5.0 out of 5 stars Matt's review of Stuart Little , October 7, 2007

A Kid's Review

E.B. White's book Stuart Little was fascinating because it had lots of exciting things Stuart did. Stuart Little is a little mouse. He is three years old and he lives with a human family. His older brother is named George. The other characters include a cat named Snowbell and a bird - his new friend named Margalo. From driving an invisible car, to racing a ship on the pond in Central Park, to his relationship with his family, his learning to survive in a human's world was extraordinary.

I give this book five ***** because it is very exciting and fun to read.
