Review

This is a special edition Geronimo Stilton. In this adventure the residents of Mouse city are suddenly getting sick. Is it the cheese that is causing all of this illness? Considering cheese is the main food source for the mice, I hope not. Fear not. Geronimo Stilton is on the case. And hopefully, he will get to the bottom of things before its too late for any of the Mouse City residents. Full color illustrations abound in pencil and ink. There are two different illustrators. For the first half of the book the illustrations are done by Silvia Bigolin. For the second half of the book they are done by Claudio Cernuschi. But you cannot tell the difference. The illustrations flow with the story throughout. The text is full of humor, adventure and lots pops out at the reader. A lot of different colors, fonts, and sizes are used to engage the reader. Nothing new here. This book is part graphic novel and part regular novel. Well written, fun adventure story starring the infamous Geronimo Stilton. Purchase where the series is popular.

Overall Book Score: very good
