The story was sooo funny that I almost broke my funnybone! It all starts when Champ signs up Geronimo Stilton for the marathon and wakes him up every morning to practice. He even dumped a vase of cold water on him! Geronimo also got hit in the ball at soccer 25 times! During the marathon, Geronimo ran the marathon, nabbed a theif, got chased by flies and mosquitos, saved a rodent from an earthquake, helped find a rodent's watch, saved a drowning rodent, and win the marathon all in one day! At the end of the story, Champ signs up Geronimo for another marathon at the Rattytrap Jungle! The book also have some excersise tips to become a sportsmouse.

I am a 9 year old boy and it is one of the best books I've ever read. It's a mystery, it's funny and exciting. My sister can't wait to read it. Now I am buying more of the series!

My daughter really loves these books. She especially likes it when my wife or I read it to her.

HaHaH!!! hilarious book Geronimo's in a Haunted house with a cat that sounds weird and I mean super weird!!!! Geronimo thinks that hes being haunted by a ghost cat but its just two small tiny cats who are useless to hurt Geronimo. They were pulling pranks to make unexpected visitors think the house was haunted they did all the pranks because they didn't want people selling there house. It was a super cool and funny book.

i admit it im not much of a muscle mouse. so when i accidentally got sindup for the mouse island marathon, i was so shocked that i lost my squeak me, run a marathon but my friends and family were determined to help me coss that finish line. holey cheese, i was never going to make it.

I was in the library and I was finding a book for me to read. So I looked at the bottom of the shelf and I found "Geronimo Stilton Mouse Island Marathon".

When I read the title I thought, "This will not be a good book." But, when I looked at the pictures it looked so good and it was a fiction book.

The main characters are Geronimo Stilton, Thea, Trap and the nephew Benjamin. In the story Geronimo Stilton was going to run in a marathon and he was scared to run because he didn't want to be last. But he raced.

Do you know why I liked it: Because it is an adventure book. If you like to read adventure books you should read this book. -by Kosuke (a student in msdu's class)

This book is awesome! Geronimo gets lost in the forest and has to spend the night in a haunted house! Geronimo gets really excited when he finds a library full of books, but he gets scared away by a ghost. The scariest part was when the ghost of Duke Slicepaw came out!

I like the way the book is printed with the words being different colors and styles. It has lots of pictures and maps too. It makes it easier for me to read it. I am going to read all fifty titles as they are translated from Italian to English!

This is the best of the first three books in the Geronimo Stilton series. I think you'll have a great time with this book.

Cat and Mouse in a Haunted House is definitely for intrepid youngsters, such as those who like to visit haunted houses where ghosts and goblins jump out at them on Halloween. If a youngster gets nervous when things go bump in the night, the beginning of this book might get in the way of good sleeping that night.

It was a dark night in October when Geronimo Stilton, the retiring editor of The Rodent's Gazette, was driving through the Dark Forest to visit his aunt Sweetfur who was vacationing in Sweet Paw Hills. The fog rolled in and the paved road ran out. Unexpectedly, Geronimo saw a sign pointing to Cannycat Castle, a place that he couldn't find on his map. Upon arriving at the castle, a lightning bolt shot down from the sky and the rain began to pour. He approached the castle and a light mysterious came on and went off in a tall tower. Geronimo finds it all a little overwhelming. Once inside, things get a lot spookier in a hurry!

In the midst of his terror, Geronimo gets a call from his sister, Thea. She immediately wants to see what's going on and tells him to wait for her. When Thea arrives, she brings jokester cousin Trap with her and their nephew, Benjamin. Trap keeps making fun of Geronimo who is embarrassed that everything spooky he has seen isn't there any more. What happened? Benjamin decides to be a detective and looks for clues.

It's an interesting mystery with a rewarding solution that any child will enjoy. Those who feel brave will feel encouraged to know that many spooky things are caused on purpose, not supernaturally by ghosts and goblins.

As with the other books in the series, the text is enlivened by printing words in bright colors and stimulating shapes that reflect their meaning and the emotions that they suggest. The illustrations are wonderful for bringing the atmosphere to just the right pitch.

I think it would be the most fun to read this in a dark room with only a small candle or some moonlight for illumination.

It's very good, it is very reccommended for all ages. You should get this book, it has some good stuff in here.
