Anticipating Redwall

The first time I read this book was either fourth or fifth grade. I read the first 4 or 5 in the series and while I enjoyed the story, I got bored with the story after a few books. My sister, however, devoured all of the books. I think we have about 30 of the Redwall books at my house. I remember really enjoying the story so I am excited to start reading it again. What I remember of the story is there is a small mouse who lives in an abbey run by mice and he ends up saving all the various woodland creatures from the evil rat, Cluny. It is a sweet story full of adventure. And who does not like a cute, little, under "dog" mouse?
