Now I have just finished The Mouse and the Motorcycle. I listened to it on CD and was delighted with the reader, who is B.D. Wong from Law & Order: SVU, which is my favorite currently-running television show. Still, even B.D. Wong couldn't' make up for this pretty boring story about a mouse who should be the pet of Margaret from AYTGIMM. He is so rotten and obnoxious and truly selfish for most of the book. True, he does redeem himself when he has the opportunity to help out the little boy who provides him with a motorcycle, but his attitude is just so rotten that it is hard to come around to liking him even when he has a change of heart.
Maybe I need to go back and read a Ramona story so that I can fall in love with Clearly all over again. Oh yeah, and never visit Portland again. That will help everything.
