In this imaginative adventure from Newbery Medal-winning author Beverly Cleary, a young mouse named Ralph is thrown into a world of excitement when a boy and his shiny toy motorcycle check into the Mountain View Inn.
When the ever-curious Ralph spots Keith's red toy motorcycle, he vows to ride it. So when Keith leaves the bike unattended in his room one day, Ralph makes his move. But with all this freedom (and speed!) come a lot of obstacles. Whether dodging a rowdy terrier or keeping his nosy cousins away from his new wheels, Ralph has a lot going on! With a pal like Keith always looking out for him, there's nothing this little mouse can't handle.

With this warning from a wise woman, Rowan and six companions set out to climb the forbidden Mountain that towers over their village, Rin. They must save the river upon which Rin depends, and they believe the source of the problem lies on the top of the Mountain where, legend has it, a dragon makes his home.

Are you worried about your children's financial future? Then whatever their ages, now is the time to teach them the money skills they will need every day of their lives.
Neale S. Godfrey is not only an expert in family finance but also a parent who puts her advice to work in her own home. Chairman of the Children's Financial Network, mother of two, and a frequent commentator on national television, Godfrey has designed a unique program for kids -- from those as young as three to those in their teens -- that teaches them how to earn, save, and spend money wisely while it lets parents clearly communicate their family's values. Using age-appropriate exercises and concrete examples, Godfrey shows parents how to deal with a variety of tough situations such as:
Your teenage daughter desperately wants a $75.00 pair of designer jeans and there's only money in the budget for a moderately priced pair. Do you give her the money?
Your five-year-old wants an allowance. Should he get it if he doesn't do his chores?
Your daughter's best friend is going to Florida on vacation. How do you explain why your family can't go?
What and why do you kids need to know about your finances?
For parents who want to teach their kids the value of money and personal values, there's no better guide than Money Doesn't Grow On Trees.
A guide to writing encourages young readers to express themselves effectively and features guidelines for friendly letters, business letters, complaints and requests, school reports, thank yous, and essays.
