One day Stuart Little's mother, father, and brother, Geroge, went out. Stuart wasleft alone with the family cat, Snowbell. “We could have fun together,” Stuart said. “You know, like friends do.” “Please. I don't eat you for lumch. That is as I get with a mouse.” said Snowbell. “Let's play a game! How about a nice game of hide-and-seek,” said Stuart. “You hide, I'll seek,” said snowbell. “Hide-and-seek it is clode your eyes and count to one hundred!” stuart said. Snowbell closed his eyes and fell asleep. Stuart tried a few hiding places. Then he saw a flower vase high on a shelf. “That is a good hiding place and Snowbell will never find me!” said Stuart. He climed up onto the shelf and slide down into the vase. He sat down to wait. But in the flower vase it is not very comfotable, so Stuart thought “I think I'm the only one playing.” Stuart stretched his arms up but he could not reach the top of the vase. “Oh no!” cried Stuart. Snowbell woke up. After a while, Snowbell said, “I hope he doesn't hide for too long.” After another while, Snowbell said, “Wait. What am I doing even thinking about the mouse?” “I've really got to get out more.” “Nobody will ever find me in here,” said Stuart and began to rock back and forth. The vase tipped to one side. It tipped to the other side. Then it fell over and began to roll faster and faster toward the edge of the shelf. Luckily, Snowbell came back to the house. “Maybe I'll just have a small snack before going out,” he said. “Help!” Stuart yelled. Snowbell looked up and saw the vase rolling fast. He jumped onto the shelf and pounched on the vase just in time. Stuart crawled out of the vase and said, “Snowbell, you found me and thanks for saving me.” “Keep it yourself, Mouse-Boy. This kind of cat-and mouse game gets no respect,” said Snowbell. “No problem, Snow,” said Stuart. (337 words)
