Sarah is eager to share all of her new knowledge about the Egyptians with Ralph. He can thank them for pancakes and being a pet. They spend time together learning more in the library.

Naughty cats are beloved characters. Ralph is unusually large and human-like, and much worse than others.
From this children's book, I myself learned a great many facts about Egypt I did not previously know.
