Stuart Little
The adventures continue for Laura Ingalls and her family as they leave their little house in the Big Woods of Wisconsin and set out for Kansas. They travel for many days in their covered wagon until they find the best spot to build their little house on the prairie. Soon they are planting and plowing, hunting wild ducks and turkeys, and gathering grass for their cows. Sometimes pioneer life is hard, but Laura and her folks are always busy and happy in their new little house.

I forgot that Stuart isn't actually a mouse. He's an extremely diminutive human born with a mouse-like appearance! The first half of the book is Stuart's young mouse-like adventures, but the second half of the book is about him venturing out into the world in a bit of a coming of age story. He's supposedly looking for a particular bird friend, but works as a substitute teacher, dates, drives a car, and generally talks and acts like an independent adult.
The book is a bit shorter than Charlotte's Web or The Trumpet of the Swan, but the vocabulary is difficult for a young kid and the ending is left unresolved.
