but this was as bad as 9/11, and the overripe pluot i just ate. rereading charlotte's web and trumpet of the swan was great - they can keep their five stars. In the mind of whatever perverted dreamer might loose the lightning, New York must hold a steady, irresistible charm." so now i blame him for 9/11, too. Of all targets New York has a certain clear priority. white: "He never stopped loving New York, calling it "a riddle in steel and stone," but he also prophetically saw the vulnerability of the city: "A single flight of planes no bigger than a wedge of geese can quickly end this island fantasy, burn the towers, crumble the bridges, turn the underground passages into lethal chambers, cremate millions. the premise is disgusting, the characters are either delusional or petty or just plain jerks, the story is flimsy, the central conflict is who-caresish. but that doesn't excuse the beginning or the middle of the book, both equally atrocious.
white was a hypochondriac who was convinced he was about to die and wanted to get this out to the publishers before that happened. and i've since learned that the ending on this was rushed because e.b. now that i reread it for my paper, it gets what it deserves. i remember liking this book when i read it as a child, and i loved trumpet of the swan and charlotte's web like no other, so i just sense-memoried this into 4 stars. "Eventually Stuart headed off back into the garden, but we look forward to another visit from him in the not too distant future," he said.Uh- oh - someone just lost two stars. He believes it will soon find a way back into their home. Stephen says the mouse retreated to the garden after the face-off with the cat. The mouse appeared to be the same one his daughter brought into the house about three weeks ago.įollowing the cute face-off, the family decided to name the mouse Stuart Little in honour of the talking mouse from the film. But the rodent bravely stood its ground despite the threat of being eaten. Much like in Stuart Little, the tiny mouse was just inches of the cat's face. Stephen was quiet enough to capture a photo scene. "I realised the fluff was in fact a tiny mouse and thought there's no consideration for social distancing in the animal world," he added. I heard this noise and I entered the living room to what looked like my daughter Diana's cat Kiara exchanging words with a ball of fluff near the French doors,” said Stephen. "It was around 3 pm and I was making a sly cup of coffee when I was supposed to be at work. When he went to investigate the commotion, he saw his daughter's cat Kiara standing opposite to a tiny mouse. Stephen McDonald was making a cup of coffee for himself in his home when he heard strange noises coming from his living room. However, a 43-year-old father from Birmingham, UK was lucky enough to witness such a moment and was also quick enough to capture it on camera.
Even if it happens, homeowners will be too unprepared to capture the moment. However, the possibility of such an event happening in real life is very slim. The sight of a little rodent bravely standing face to face with a fully grown cat is something children have watched on television for decades.
Some of the most memorable moments of Tom & Jerry cartoons and the 1999 film ‘Stuart Little’ are when Jerry and Stuart prove they are no scaredy cats by standing up to their arch enemies. Mouse stands up to cat in real-life 'Stuart Little' moment | Photo Credit: Twitter
