Image Gallery Description & Details

Stuart Little by E.B. White was published in 1945 by Harper & Brothers in New York and London. This first edition carries the correct “I-U” designation on the copyright page. The novel introduced a mouse born into a human family, blending elements of fantasy and suburban realism. The illustrations by Garth Williams reflect postwar American artistic sensibilities. Bound in tan cloth and retaining its original dust jacket, the book represents the early children’s fiction output of White, who would later publish Charlotte’s Web.
