The Kingdom of Fantasy by Geronimo Stilton
What can I say about a book that my daughter wakes up early on summer vacation to read?
There is a whole series, including a series written by Geronimo’s sister, Thea Stilton. Each book is written by Geronimo, the editor and publisher of The Rodent’s Gazette. The books are adventures and mysteries that Geronimo encounters in his life. The Kingdom of Fantasy has several notes for Geronimo to decipher (written in what I would call hieroglyphics). My daughter worked very hard to crack the codes – she loved it.
I have been reading The Kingdom of Fantasy aloud to my son for the past few weeks. He is engaged and paying attention, but I’m guessing he is not as ‘into it’ as his sister was. However, as I have said before, all children benefit from read aloud and/or some quiet, one-on-one time with their parents.
There is some adult humor which may bypass the children, but, a good choice for kids. http://www.geronimostilton.com
Happy Reading!
