When Ralph and his pesky cousins accidentally make a mess at the Mountain View Inn, Ralph decides that he'd better take his motorcycle and leave. He persuades his young pal Ryan to take him to school, where Ralph is an instant hit with Ryan's classmates. But Ralph doesn't like being told what to do. Worse than that, his precious motorcycle gets broken. Is Ralph stuck at school forever?
In this installment in Cleary's beloved Mouse and the Motorcycle trilogy, Ralph has problems. His motorcycle is suffering wear and tear from his nightly excursions, and his adoring relatives are messing up the hotel lobby where they live. Yet the "S" stands for Smart, and Ralph calculates that the mysterious place called "school" might hold the solution to his problems. B.D. Wong brings the characters of the Mountain View Hotel and the Irwin J. Sneed Elementary School to life. Ralph and "his boy," Ryan, are as vibrant and intertwined as any two characters can beâ pouting over tiffs and rejoicing over victories. Wong's supporting characters are distinctâ from imperious hotel manager, Mr. Minch, to creative classroom teacher Miss K. A.R. (c) AudioFile 2007, Portland, Maine
