E.B. White's Stuart Little creeps me out a bit. The expectant parents go to the hospital and come back with a ..... mouse! The woman gave birth to a mouse!
It doesn't phase my kids at all. But I can't get past it.
And I can't imagine a woman having written it. (I'm assuming the creepiness part never occurred to White.)
I notice that in the movie version, Stuart is adopted.
