Here is what happened in the section that I read. This week (and probably all the next weeks) I will be adding comments about the reading, instead of just a summary.
Snowball is outside with one of his friends, who is an Angora cat. Snowball tells his friend about Margalo and Stuart. The Angora cat asks Snowball why he will not eat them, and Snowball replies that they are family. I like that in this book Snowball has a code of ethics, because normally a cat would eat whatever it wanted. The Angora cat is surprised that Snowball has such self control, and decides to go eat them himself. A pidgeon has seen the whole meeting and in the morning leaves a note for Margalo warning about the strange cat. Margalo decides that she should fly away from the house to stay safe. Since it is getting close to spring she just migrates north. When Stuart has found out that Margalo has left he is very sad. Something I don't understand is how a mouse can get attached to a bird (I guess this is a work of fiction so anything can happen). Stuart runs away from home to find Margalo. Stuart visits Dr. Carey and he tells him that Margalo might be in Central Park. Dr. Carey gives Stuart a car that he can drive that even turns invisible, but Stuart accidently lets it lose. When the gas runs out the car is ruined and Stuart is very dissapointed, but the next day after Stuart finds a suitable travel outfit at the doll shop, the car is repaired, and he sets off. Stuart on his travels becomes a substitute teacher.

It's nice that you are enjoying Stuart Little, but you are welcome to read articles if you are waiting to get a new book. You can go to NYTimes.com and find something that looks good...
