Stuart is the only mouse in the orphanage, and he wants a home. Then, the Littles arrive and adopt him. At first, their son, George isn't very supportive of this. Then, he starts to like him. They soon become the best of friends, but the family cat wants Stuart to leave. This is a wonderful family film, that is heartwarming and fun.
