Detailed, delicate drawings depict the Great Car Race on Mouse Day starting in front of the Mouse Assembly Hall and the grand prize is The Ultimate Piece of Cheese. It’s the biggest cheese anyone has ever seen. Easygoing Taro with his yellow scarf, mechanic Kuro with his knotted tail, young Chibi with her green bracelet, curious Guro with one blue sock, and gentle Shiro with her long tail team up to design an unbeatable racecar. After overcoming many obstacles they cross the finish line and throw the Ultimate Cheese Party, where everyone is a winner. mjw |
