This review is from: Geronimo Stilton: The Quest for Paradise: The Return to the Kingdom of Fantasy (Hardcover)
My son is in the second grade and I have a very hard time finding books that are challenging yet hold his interest. He found this book and wanted to read it. It has 300+ pages and I was a little worried he would get bored with it. He loved it so much he actually read the thing in a day. He has never been so engrossed in a book! The pages are very colorful and there are small activities spaced throughout the short chapters. He loved following Geronimo through his adventures with ogres, witches, the candy land, etc. It also helped build his confidence given he finished such a long book. We will definately be getting more of these.

We love Geronimo Stilton - my boys just eat this series up. The books are funny and have plots, and the puns and funny situations give us the giggles. We haven't found a dud yet, but even so, this book is a nice surprise.
It is a full-length novel, much bigger than the usual Geronimo Stilton chapter books. 300 pages, and get ready for some great maps and illustrations. Games, codes, and mazes are sprinkled through the book to keep your reader engaged.
The double-page illustrations of each find-the-crystal-key page are very well done indeed.
If you have more than one Geronimo Stilton fan, you might want to buy multiples of this book.

My son loves action, adventure and humor and this book had all three. He read it in two days. The Geronimo Stilton books really appeal to 7/8 year old sensibilities. And the Kingdom of Fantasy trilogy has been my son's favorite.
