Ralph is determined to be something more than just a crumb-scrounging mouse.  He's going to live a life of speed, danger, and excitement at summer camp, but as it turns out camp is not all fun!  Soon, Ralph realizes home is a pretty great place after all . . . 

With a motorcycle to ride and the open road to see, Runaway Ralph ramps up the humor and adventure in a fun story that will appeal to middle grade kids who like an action filled and funny tale with a sympathetic hero.
