This is another entertaining book series that my granddaughter loves! All
of the titles are good -- not a poorly written one among them. The books
are aimed toward a young audience, but are fun to read for any person
of any age that has a child's imagination!

I bought the first Geronimo Stilton book for my grandson when he was only five years old. We quickly added more of these delightful books to his library. He is eight now and these are still his favorite bedtime stories. Wonderful adventures for children.

From my 8 year old child:
I think the book was adventureus,funny,interesting,fun,and mysterious if you enjoy this book there are millions of other Geronimo Stilton books.

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! Follow Geronimo on secret agent adventure with his sister Thea. 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).

my sister, thea, is a mystery loveing rodent,not me but somehow i found myself going underground to find an important missing document. slimy swiss cheese i hardly knew where to start geronimo stilton, secret agent mouse maybe i could get used to that

tis the season to be jolly! and holey cheese was i trying. but on my way to new york city to meet my family for the holidays, my luggage got switched with another mouse's. oh rats! now i had to scurry all over the big apple trying to find that other mouse and all my presents!.

Fun collection of books, my 8 year old son loves these. I like that they include fun facts about the area the story takes place in, nice addition.

Geronimo absolutely loves Christmas, and the very idea of his favorite holiday warms his heart on a chilly winter day. He begins planning his usual family holiday dinner in great detail when his grandfather interrupts with disheartening news: "This year, the entire Stilton family will spend Christmas in New York!" Grandfather, it seems, has accepted an invitation to spend Christmas in his friend's fabulous apartment overlooking Central Park. Geronimo, ever the traditionalist, protests --- but to no avail. And when Geronimo hears how excited his nephew Benjamin is, he fakes enthusiasm.

His flight to New York goes fairly smoothly (at least, for nontraveler Geronimo!). It's not until he's in the taxi on his way to the MacMouse apartment that Geronimo runs into a huge problem. He discovers that his wallet is in his suitcase...and he has the wrong suitcase! He accidentally grabbed an identical bag belonging to someone else at the airport. Geronimo doesn't have money or his cell phone, but he does discover a tag on the bag that reads "Mrs. A. Smith." He panics. Smith must be the most common name in the world! How will he ever find the bag's owner and trade her for his own suitcase?

When Geronimo discovers Mrs. Smith's appointment book, he decides he will find her. The first entry for that day is "10:00 Columbia University," so he takes off on foot on a tremendous quest that leads him all over the Big Apple. Geronimo's treasure hunt through the city gives A VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS a great plot --- plus oodles of fascinating information about New York City, along with many fun Christmas ideas.
