Swan Song

Like the rest of his family, Louis is a trumpeter swan. But unlike his four brothers and sisters, Louis can't trumpet joyfully. In fact, he can't even make a sound. And since he can't trumpet his love, the beautiful swan Serena pays absolutely no attention to him.

Louis tries everything he can think of to win Serena's affection -- he even goes to school to learn to read and write. But nothing seems to work. Then his father steals him a real brass trumpet. Is a musical instrument the key to winning Louis his love?

《这就是纽约(中英双语珍藏本)》主要内容简介：随笔作者是些自我放纵的人，天真地以为，他想的一切，围绕他发生的一切，都会引起大家的兴趣。此人陶醉于他的事情，就像喜欢观察鸟类的人陶醉于他的郊游一样。随笔作者每一次新的出行，每一次新的“尝试”，都与上一次不同，带他进入新的天地。他为此兴奋。只有天生以自我为中心的人，才会如此旁若无人、锲而不舍地去写随笔。 随笔有各式各样，一如人的姿势、姿态各式各样，霍华德.约翰逊牌冰淇淋的味道也各式各样。随笔作者清早起来，如果有事情要做，便从塞得满满的衣橱里选取他的行头：视他的情绪，他的题材，他可以套上随便哪件衬衫，扮成随便什么人——哲人、泼皮、弄臣、说书人、密友、学者、杠头、狂热分子。我性喜随笔，一向如此，很小时就忙了把我幼稚的思想和经验敷衍成文字，用来折磨别人。我最早是在，《圣尼古拉斯杂志》上露脸的。偶然有了想法，我仍然会回到随笔这种形式（其实无形式可言）上来，但我并不奢望随笔在二十世纪美国文学中占有位置——它毕竟不登大雅之堂。随笔作者，与小说家、诗人、剧作家不同，必须满足于自我设定的二等公民身分。

Stuart Little is no ordinary mouse. Born to a family of humans he lives in New York City with his parents, his older brother George and Snowball the cat.

His daring escapades include racing a toy boat in a Central Park pond, retrieving his mother's ring from a drain, and crawling inside a piano to fix the keys for his brother. When his best friend, a beautiful little bird called Margalo disappears from her nest, Stuart is determined to track her down.
