Report by James H.
 Ralph is a brown and white mouse. He's young. He's curious. He likes to explore. He is a hero. He likes Keith, the boy in the book.
The story takes place in the Mountain View Inn, a hotel. The plot is about becoming responsible and caring about others that you normally won't care about. It's also about learning from your mistakes and having to own up to them.
The boy was very sick. The parents had no aspirin pills. Ralph went to find one. Ralph went down to the first floor to find an aspirin pill. Ralph got caught by a person, but got away and found an aspirin for the boy Keith. Keith took it and felt much better. Keith was so happy with Ralph.
The ending of the book was about Ralph being a hero. His mom realized he was growing up and she allows him more freedom. He does good things and gets more things in return.
