Stuart Little

This book is not at all the same as the movie. There are many discrepancies in the stories. The only similar story is the sailing story, but even that is different.... in the movie his brother's boat is broken by a little boy-jerk and the steering and navigation is unable to be fixed so Stuart drives the boat in a race. In this book he asks to go on a random man's boat and sails it through a miniature storm. He also always seems to be in trouble of sorts either he is locked in the fridge or wrecking a small invisible car. The biggest difference is the bird Margalo. In the 1999 movie version, the bird is a bad guy and steals his mother's diamond ring because the evil hawk is forcing her to do so rather than Margalo leaving Stuart Little's house after she receives a warning from a pigeon that over heard plans of Margalo's "assassination" by Snowbell the cat. In this book Margalo never tells Stuart that she is leaving. He is heartbroken at her sudden disappearance. Stuart makes a rash decision to find her and sets off. Eventually he acquires a car and travels the state of New York stopping here and there to have adventures as he looks for her. The book ends quickly and He never finds her. Infact he finds another hot girl who he crashes a canoe with. Strange.
