Final Appreciation for stuart little!

                    I think the most intersting books, are books that teaches you a lesson. Some of my childhood books that i think have a good example of that, is Stuart little and Charlotte's Web. Both of these books are published by the same author. And also after a few years they made a action movie of these books. The feeling of when i was little ,was " wow i can get to see them moving".
                    When i was younger i never realized that almost every book have a lesson or theme they want the reader to know. But as im older now , and i re-read my childhood books i can actually have deeper thoughts of the book im reading and how the author describes it using words.
                     One childhood book i really want to focus on is Stuart little because i like how the author makes him unique.  He was the second son from the Little's family , and he looked very much like a mouse. he had a mouse like tail , a mouse like nose and a mouse like whiskers. And the most impressing of all is that he is only 2inches high!
                     I think the author makes him how he is because the author wants us to teach us something . Stuart is also a very brave and smart mouse. Even though he has many problems like getting to the sink and turning on the water to brush his teeth , he dosent make it get into his way. He likes to help his family when they need him. It's like "what can a little mouse like him do?".
                      The author makes positive things out of negative things . Like for example begin small is bad , but then since you are so small you can go to places where big people can't go because they are too big to fit through. so i think that is kind of amazing.
                     I appreciate the hard work that the author goes through , because i know that publishing a book takes many years and hard work to make a perfect book.The author has to change or make things so that it relates to a topic or theme he is focusing on. For stuart i think it is that begin small should'nt affect what you want to do as long as you really want to do it.
                     In conclusion even though Stuart little was a pretty good book , i just hoped that the ending would be better.
                      

Draft 1 -

    I think the most intersting and memorable book in my childhood are the books that teaches an lesson. The books i've read are similar to each other and they are also made by the same author, which are Stuart Little and Charlotte's Web. Surely a few years after the books are published they make a movie out of it , which is awesome i can get to see my favorite characters move, and also with color. i also think it's cool because no everybook or it;s movie is the same ,there are parts where they are different.
     I liked Stuart little because it's weirdness, like how are you suppose to have a mouse-like kid in a human family , which is very weird. But i like Stuart because of his braveness and his smart brain. Because just because you are very small dosen't mean you can't do anything , if you have a brain you can do anything you if you try, because that's what the brain is for no matter how big or small your brain is.
      Some favorite parts where i think stuart is very brave is, when at night  he is worried about his friend the new bird name "margalo". He is scared the cat snowbell will do something to harm his new friend. And it really happens, when snowbell was about to spring at it stuart came to the recuse. Even though mouse are scared of cats because mouse are small and cats are big , but that dosen't affect what stuart thinks he just want to save his friend.
      Even though begin small most people don't like , i like how the author brings some positive things about begin small, like if you are small like stuart you can go under the drain which is pretty cool, where if you are big for the rest of your life you can never go down there , because you can't just grow small. i appreciate how the author brings positive things out of bad things, becuase then it makes the reader think "hmm... maybe begin so small is'nt that bad".
       It's like the same for the book Charlotte's web, and charlotte is also small because she is a spider  . Just like in stuart little he is also small because he is a mouse like human that is 2inches tall. i think the main theme in both of these book is that small doesn't effect the way you think etc.. and friendship is also very important.
         i appreciate how the author uses similar theme and convert them into two differnt books with very different characters.
       I think people who have read these books before should read them again because as a childhood rereading book because you will discover new things.

Questions on "Stuart Little"

       
On the last page on the book i had so many questions to ask the author because he didn't tell us what happened to stuart, he just wrote "But the sky was bright, and he somewhat felt he was headed in the right direction." After i read that sentence i was like that's it?? i wanted to know so much more!
        Some questions i had were "i wonder if stuart's family is worried about him"because after stuart left home to find Margalo the author never wrote about his how is family instead he just focused on stuart . Like in the begining of the book he of the book he writes  about Stuart's family alot but then out of nowhere,we don't know about them anymore towards the end of the book.
        Another question was that is Stuart going to find Magalo for the rest of his life? i had that question stuck in my mind because all the author gave us was that Stuart somewhat felt he was in was going in the right direction. I didn't think that was very helpful to my question.
          Another question kind of relating to the first question is that will he ever go back to New York City to visit his family ever again or will he continue to travel north to find his friend? , and what happens if he never finds Margalo and what's going to happen to him when he runs out of supplies and money ?
          Even though i know that the Author is putting us at the egde of our seat i would still like to know what actually happend to Stuart or else i will keep thinking that this book is incomplete.
     Stuart could at least write a letter saying that he is doing fine ,so that his family doesn't have to worry alot .

Theme: Friendship

          I think an important main-idea or theme that can be discussed in "Charlotte's Web" is "Friendship", because i think this whole book is kind of focused on how Wilbur and Charlotte become friends and start helping each other when they are in trouble.
          It starts in the begining of the book when Wilbur wants a friend, because he feels very lonely and wants someone to play with or even talk to . For example when Wilbur states "I'm very young, i have no real friend here in the barn". Then at night he hears a small voice that he had never heard before, it said "Do you want a friend Wilbur?" and continues to say "I'll be a friend to you. I've watched you all day long and i like you". I think when Wilbur hear's those words he must be so happy because he can finally have a friend or someone he can enjoy with .
          When they met for the first time Wilbur did'nt seem to like her because she was so blood-thirsty. He was in horror when he saw Charlotte suck the blood from the fly when she captured it in her web. But  that's the way spiders have to live , they have a life too, and they need to do whatever they need to do to survive.
          But then things get complicated further in the book when Wilbur is in trouble . The old sheep says that Wilbur will get killed when it's winter . Charlotte wants to help Wilbur out because Wilbur is worrying too much . Then that's when Wilbur starts to notice how important Charlotte is to him. I think that's what friendship is about too, when your friend is in trouble then you should help them ,because you are their real friends and they need you to be there for them .
           Friendship is an important theme in this book because Charlotte is always there when Wilbur needs her . If Wilbur has trouble she will use everything she can do to help him out , even it's all about fooling the humans to not kill Wilbur. She's very brave and smart that's what make her a very speacial friend to Wilbur .She's also like a teacher to Wilbur, because Wilbur dose'nt know lots of stuff and always would ask Charlotte questions when he dose'nt understamd something.
           In the middle of the book , i thought that Wilbur was begin a bit selfish because, he's letting Charlotte do all the work , so that he would'nt get killed but.....
 At the last day of the country fair Charlotte died and i thought that this book is going to end soon just like that but, Wilbur did something that i would'nt think that he would, and that almost made me cry. Wilbur took care of the egg sac that Charlotte left behind, like he was also a parent of the egg sac. At the end some spiders left and 3 stayed behind with Wilbur, which means Wilbur gets more friends!
           The most depressing part of this book is at the end of the book , at the last page of this book, because it stated these following words "Wilbur never forgot about Charlotte. She was in a class by herself. It's not very often that someone comes along who is a true friend and a good writer.Charlotte was both.". That's what you call a strong friendship, because you can never forget about it. I think Wilbur and Charlotte can still be friends by heart even though Charlotte is very far because i believe in "Best Friends Forever!".
