Mouse and the Motorcycle by Beverly Cleary

If you have never read this book, you really should. I read it a long time ago and reread it with my seven year old daughter. She loved it, too.

"A reckless young mouse named Ralph makes friends with a boy in room 215 of the Mountain View Inn and discovers the joys of motorcycling."
