Here is the Spanish version of Beverly Cleary's much-loved tale about a boy, a mouse, and the motorcycle that inspires a powerful friendship between them. During a trip to California, Keith's human family stays in the room of an out-of-the-way hotel where Ralph and other members of his mouse family live. Ralph's love of exploration and tendencies towards trouble land him in the inescapable bottom of waste paper basket, where Keith finds, rescues, and introduces him to the adventures inherent in riding a motorcycle. But when Ralph unceremoniously loses the motorcycle in a pile of laundry, their friendship takes on new dimensions as the big-hearted mouse tries to make up for his deed. This book, with its accompanying black and white line drawings, will delight not only avid readers, but also hard-to-please readers. In addition, while girls will certainly find the story stirring and stimulating, with its motorcycle theme and male characters, this book offers an excellent reading option for boys, especially at an age when many lose interest in reading altogether. 1986, HarperCollins Publishers, $15.99 and $5.99. Ages 8 to 12.Horn Book (The Horn Book Guide, Spring 2004)
