Ralph (Mouse)

Ralph S. Mouse (as named in the third book) is the main protagonist of Beverly Cleary's three books, "The Mouse and the Motorcycle", "Runaway Ralph" and "Ralph S. Mouse". He is a young mouse who lives with only his widowed mother and sister Susie. (His father had died from consuming round white pills because they looked good to eat, but to mice, they are poisonous.) He also has an Uncle Lester, but it is unknown which parent the latter is related to. He befriends three boys in each book: Keith in the first book, Garf in the second, and Ryan in the third. In the 1986 special adaption of the first book, he is in stop-motion form and voiced by Evan Richards.
