My son loves these books. I always preorder the new ones. Anything to keep them reading! Great book, great adventures.

The following review is by Isabella (6 year old) one of the younger members of dream factory commune.

"I really liked this book. It is very ineresting. Two rats try to win the race. But there is a truck and bike in front of them. We go through America. You have facts on them. And a breathless finish. And one of the rats win. Then guess who won?"

parental comment: This book presents a fast paced stimulating story which holds young mind's attention. The youngster shall learn: the history of the bicycle, anatomy of a camper, the Grand Canyon, Monument Valley, 14,000 ft. elevation, 120 derees, and many other quite interesting concepts along the race route.

Indeed we must add that all of these 'Geronimo Stilton' books are fascinating and educational.

This book was ordered for my granddaughter, she loves the Geronimo Stilton Books! Very pleased with the time book arrived!

My child loves all of these 'Geronimo Stilton' books. He found them in the school's library and now I am buying the rest of the series from Amazon, as we are living in South Africa and we couldn't find them in the books shops. I think they are very educational and I enjoy reading them.

You would think that after reading the G.S. books for two years now, the kids would get tired of them...no, here is another great story by G.S. The pictures, color, fonts, typestyles and all the other eye interest catching items. Very nice, crisp and clean WHITE pages with pop out at you color! Here is another interesting place for adventure (and humour). These books take you to wonderful areas of the world and keep you interested with adventure too. These are also Accelerated Reader books which are used in the public school system for reading testing and comprehension. The G.S. books hold their value too (if you resell).

Both my grand daughters "flew" through the book and love this series. I decided to scan it to make sure it was OK for eight and nine years old types and decided to quiz them on their retention. this was because they read the book so quickly, cover-to-cover, hardly putting it down. I like the format and found nothing wrong. After I questioned them, one of them decided a second read was necessary! I'm an old buzzard, grand-pop but I can see why this series would be popular with this age group. If you are not familiar with it, the used books are inexpensive so buy one and have your children check it out after you verify what I already told you.

i have read a lot of GERONIMO's books.but this is the worse one yet!i think this book needs more details!
