Stuart Little

Stuart! Your mother just dropped her wedding ring down the bathtub drain could you be a good fellow and fetch it out?

I'll try dad... Here you are mother!

He kept going in the direction of Connecticut

I've got to find her hmm here's a fork in the road. I wonder which way I should go? Oh good morning. It's going to be a fine day.

Oh look! She's asleep I'll give her this birdseed in the morning.

Mom do you think Margalo will be safe sleeping in the living room?

Stuart are you ready?

Ready sir!

I'll go get her some food and water

Say mom do you know where... oh hello Who are you? Where did you come from?

One morning when the wind was from the west Stuart put on his sailor hat and set out for a walk full of the joy of life.

I think there is a nearby pond where they have sailboat races. I'm going to try and find it.

Stuart back your foresail and give her full!

Aye aye sir!

That's captain sally and she owns the womrath and her boat is always bumping into my boat my young friend I'll let you sell the wasp across the pond and back and if you are able to beat the womrath and the despicable captain Sally I'll give you a regular job.

Aye aye sir!

Why yes I am a repairman.

Do you ever happen to see birds at he top of the poles?

She was and she loved to whistle. But she flew away I think she's headed north.

Do you know why she left?

Yes a fine day indeed. I am looking forward to climbing telephone poles.

Do you work for a telephone company?

The womrath is the fastest boat in this park. And I captain Sally have never been defeated!

Excuse me sir. Are you the owner of that boat?

It is very nice to meet you Stuart but if you excuse me I am sick and need some rest. Good night.

Good night Margalo! See you in the morning. Ah she sleeps what an exquisite bird.

Then he left his beautiful home behind.

Goodbye beautiful home. I wonder if I will ever see you again. The world is a big place to look for a lost bird.

Why yes I am she is named the Wasp

I am looking to participate in the sailboat races do you think you could sign me on? I'm strong and quick.

Good work Stewart do what do you attribute this victory young fellow

I credit a good wind and good fortune

Well I'll tell you what do you see that lady over there?

I do.

Something inside Margalo told her that north was the way for a bird to fly when spring comes.

She's gone! She's gone! She didn't even say goodbye... I'm heartbroken. I can't sleep I can't eat. I must go out into the world and look for Margalo. And while I'm about it I might as well seek my fortune too.

Stuart did you meet Margalo? What do you think of her?

She's okay I guess.

It looked like she was trying to run away from a cat.

Snowbell it's him. That means Margalo left because of him not me. Thank you very much for your help.

Thank you Stuart.

Bob voyage Stuart. Take care of yourself and make sure you bring the wasp back in one piece.

That I will now off to the pond for the race!

But wait you haven't told me your name

The name is Stuart Little

And he can walk!

There are certain advantages to being a mouse.

She won't touch Margalo. You can go to sleep and forget all about it.

There's something in me that doesn't trust that cat. I just know Margalo is in danger.

All the time I just saw one a few minutes ago.

Was she brown?

Happy to. I hope you find your bird.

Well it's time to get started there's the road that leads north I may have to go a long way. But the sky is bright and somehow I feel I'm headed in the right direction. I'm coming Margalo I'm coming!

There go the boats heading for the north end of the pond.

What a race!

Quite safe dear.

What about the cat?

....You have a fine son there Mr. and Mrs. Little

Why thank you doctor.

My name is Margalo I come from fields tall with wheat from pastures deep in fern and thistle. I come from bales of meadow sweet and I love to whistle.

Wow! I'm Stuart Little.
