Ralph has made up his mind. He is going to run away. He is tired of being bossed around by his mother and Uncle Lester. He's fed up with his silly, pesky little brothers and sisters. Ralph is determined to grow up to be something more than just another crumb-scrounging mouse at the Mountain View Inn. He is going to live a life of speed, danger, and excitement--with his very own mouse-sized motorcycle!
But when Ralph speeds off down the open road on his red bike, he has no idea he's headed for excitement beyond his wildest dreams, or that he'll make a new friend who will rescue him from the frightening dangers of his big adventure.
