Stuart's search for Margalo is tinged with gentle melancholy; the ending is open and hopeful rather than resolved
What this book is about
Stuart Little is the second son of Frederick and Mrs. Little, born small and resembling a mouse in every way. After his friend, a bird named Margalo, flies north to escape a threatening cat, Stuart sets off in his tiny car to find her. E.B. White's first children's novel is shorter and more episodic than Charlotte's Web, but shares that book's extraordinary quality of treating its young readers as capable of genuine feeling and understanding. The ending—Stuart still searching, still hopeful—is characteristically bittersweet.
