Great submitted by TLW1998 on June 25, 2022, 8:13pm This is a well-written, cute story about a mouse and a toy motorcycle. My 6-year and I really enjoyed it

Five stars! submitted by Emily6282 on June 25, 2023, 6:50pm This book is about a mouse that likes to ride a motorcycle. His name is Ralph. You should read this because the mouse’s adventures are funny.

A perfectly logical way for a mouse to make a toy motorcycle go submitted by Diananana on July 26, 2023, 11:58pm Beverly Cleary's aim was to write books that break out of the boundaries of traditional children's literature of the time. She really understood what children want to read. The protagonist, Ralph, is a mouse who wants to break the rules of being a mouse. He does just that when he encounters a shiny red motorcycle that is just his size. How does he make the motorcycle go? I'm not telling.
