I read a book about a mouse with a motorcycle (https://www.goodreads.com/en/book/show/232109.The_Mouse_and_the_Motorcycle) and a different book about a mouse-like child with sailboat. (https://www.goodreads.com/en/book/show/138959.Stuart_Little).
M. Night Shyamalan wrote a screenplay about the latter book, and it was made into a popular movie.
Reminds me of the "lost" painting that was rediscovered via the movie Stuart Little:

It is quite surprising yo discover that some of the props used in tv/movies/theatre are actual real objects that just "fit", but it makes sense if one thinks about it.
I think I heard the story of a "lost" Hungarian picture rediscovered through becoming a movie prop on HN some time ago, and while not as interesting as the clock coffin, it's still quite good[0].
