Stuart Little Slipcase Gift Set a children’s book written by the famous author E. B. White. Stuart Little, the main character of the book, is no ordinary mouse. Born to a family of humans, he lives in New York City with his parents, his older brother George, and Snowbell the cat. Though he’s shy and thoughtful, he’s also a true lover of adventure.
He is a great help around the house, and everybody except Snowbell the cat likes him a great deal. Though he is very small, Stuart gets around in the world, riding a Fifth Avenue bus, racing (and winning in) a sailboat in Central Park, teaching school for a day, and so on. His size — just over two inches — does give him some trouble now and then, like the time he was rolled up in the window shade, or when he got dumped into a garbage scow. But on the whole, his life is a happy one.
His great adventure comes when, at the age of seven, he sets out in the world to seek his dearest friend, Margalo, a beautiful little bird who stayed for a few days in the Littles’ Boston house. It is on this search that we leave with Stuart, going north in his little car.
In this special gift-book edition of a beloved classic, renowned artist Rosemary Wells has lovingly added watercolor to the original black-and-white drawings by Garth Williams. Stuart Little, small in size only, has the spirit of a heroic figure, and his story, funny and tender and exciting by turns, will be read, reread, and loved by young and old.

The person behind you constantly kicks the back of your seat．Your talkative seatmate doesn’t understand your need for sleep．And the aircraft’s bathroom is a total mess．These situations can make even a short flight unbearable．Hopefully you don’t cause these unpleasant experiences for others．Instead，you can set an example by following these common airplane courtesies．
Always recline your seat slowly．There’s nothing worse than suddenly being slammed in the knees by the seat in front of you．In addition，don’t keep your seat reclined for the entire flight．Always keep it upright position before going to the restroom（or anytime you leave your seat）．
Avoid going to the bathroom during mealtime．Wait until the meal is done and all the food trays have been collected．It’s hard for passengers to stand up to let you pass when they still have their food trays．And when using the bathroom，always clean up after your-self-the next user will be grateful!
Keep your body--and your possessions-to yourself as much as possible so as not to crowd your in-flight seatmate（s）．Share the armrest，especially on a long flight．Also，be careful not to kick or push on the seat in front of you，and don’t allow your children to do so either．
While some people enjoy chatting with other passengers during a flight，not everyone does．Some people may want to nap，read or work．If the conversation seems one—sided，take the hint．
If you are traveling with someone and want to chat，keep your voices low．If using electronic gadgets，keep the volume down．People can still hear through your headphones if the volume is too high．
When exiting the plane，if others are having trouble with their carry-on luggage，help them if you can．If you can’t help，wait patiently，and don’t push past people to get off the airplane．
On your next flight，remember that it all boils down to the golden rule．Treat others the way you want to be treated !
