Single 8vo pages, cream paper, vertical folds, one letter on West 67th St, New York stationery. All addressed to a friend, Selina Strong. New York, 1946; 1952; 1956
February 12, 1946. Drawing of Stuart Little writing (as himself) three pages about his life with "Mr. Cady" and telling her tales of his escapades. A second letter written by Stuart is dated June 15, 1952 thanking her for clippings she sent to Cady, who is so busy packing that he "pays no attention to anything or anybody which also includes me and so I must write to make up for his bad manners." Original envelope included. The third letter, dated New York, Nov 10, 1956 is a thank-you note signed by Cady himself ("Harrison") with a large drawing of the top-hatted ladybug standing on a mushroom, writing the letter held up by an "easel" of a tall weed.
