Beverly Cleary was a bestselling author of children's literature who wrote about the adventures of Henry Huggins and his friends. One particular story, "The Mouse and the Motorcycle," is about a mouse named Wrinkles and a motorcycle named Popsy.

Wrinkles eventually learns to ride the bike and enjoys doing so; he even goes on a cross-country trip with Mommy Mouse on their way back home.
This is the story of two young mice who argue about which one is fastest. The first mouse compares himself to a racecar, and the second mouse compares herself to a bicycle. They decide to race each other, but once they start, they realize that their winning machine is actually the little gray cat purring in the sun.
