Product Description

Product Description

Who Is Geronimo Stilton? That's me! I run a newspaper, but my true passion is writing tales of adventure. Here on Mouse Island, my books are all best-sellers! What's that? You've never read one? Well, my books are full of fun. They are whisker-licking good stories, and that's a promise! It all started when my sister, Thea, discovered a mysterious map. It showed a secret treasure on a faraway island. And before I could let out a squeak of protest, Thea dragged me into her treasure hunt! In no time at all, we'd set sail for the island. It was an adventure I'd never forget...


About the Author

Geronimo Stilton was born in New Mouse City, Mouse Island. He is Rattus Emeritus of Mousomorphic Literature and Neo-Ratonic Comparative Philosophy. In his spare time, Mr. Stilton collects antique cheese rinds and plays golf. But what he most enjoys is telling stories to his nephew Benjamin.

5.0 out of 5 stars Makes Me Feel Like I'm Four Again, Jan 7 2009

When I was about four years old, I couldn't get enough of stories about lost and buried treasures, treasure maps, and daunting adventures to follow such maps. Naturally, I had to rely on someone to read those stories to me. When I was older, I graduated to reading the stories myself and eventually found books such as Treasure Island and She. Later, I began to read about real-life adventures in exotic locales. As a teenager, a local radio station buried a "treasure" and teased us with clues for months; I joined my friends in digging on vacant desert land in all directions. It was great fun.

Ever since then, I've wondered how I could find a book to start my grandchildren, grand nephews and nieces, and other favored children with to help them develop the same appetite. I mention that desire because I never quite found the right book for my children when they were growing up.

The Geronimo Stilton series is off to a grand start in Lost Treasure of the Emerald Eye. It has all of the elements that anyone could want: lost treasure, a mysterious treasure map, a treasure island, and the need to sail to get there. To make the story more appealing, we have a mouse family with interesting quirks that reminded me of the many Uncle Scrooge comics I loved as a child that involved looking for lost treasure in obscure locales while Donald Duck did the heavy lifting.

Geronimo Stilton is a mouse designed to please anyone. He has all the personality that Mickey Mouse (that venerable Disney icon) lacks. He's the serious responsible one (the correspondent to Uncle Scrooge). His sister Thea is the intuitive one, encouraging everyone forward. Trap is the hopeless relative who manages to be more helpful than anyone expects (including Trap).

The drawings are very imaginative, drawn in rich warm colors that make you want to spend time with them. The book has lots of background illustrations about Mouse Island and New Mouse City to help youngsters get into the mood.

The typography is brilliant. Words are reproduced to reflect what they mean. "Rocking back and forth" at sea is represented as a sine wave like a roller coaster, for instance. How can any youngster not want to know what those words mean and then quickly memorize them?

The later books in the series have more educational content than this one, but they are certainly no more fun.

Start with this book, and I predict you'll want to read the whole series!

4.0 out of 5 stars WEIRED ENDINGS,, May 27 2004
By Duayna Brown (Port Charlotte, FL USA) - See all my reviews
Hi ya everybody! As you know, I bought something else (again.) I rated this 4 stars because I still do not understand the way they found the emerald eye. But still, it is a great story. HOWEVER, This book is NOT for early chapter book readers. It would take 2 weeks to read it. CAUTION!: If you do NOT beleve in ghosts don't buy #3. But all I can say it is a wonderful series of books. But they may sometimes have iniproprite words. But they think it is funny. Anyway it is good. Hope this review was helpful! 'Late

5.0 out of 5 stars Geronimo Stilton is the Greatest Mouse Author Ever!!, May 24 2004
By A Customer
I thought this was a really good book. My favorite character (besides Geronimo Stilton) was Geronimo's cousin, Trap. He is very funny. Thea finds a treasure map and she gets Geronimo and Trap to go looking for the treasure. The scariest part of the book was when the Lucky Lady sank! The most exciting part is when Geronimo finally sees the Emerald Eye!

I also 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!
