Geronimo Stilton books are Gab’s favorite book series. He has been reading them for more than a year and has finished reading more than 30 books from the series already. He is addicted to it. The Geronimo Stilton book series is aimed at the 9-12 year-old. Gab is an early reader. He started reading the book when he was 5 years old.
Geronimo Stilton books talks about the adventures of Geronimo Stilton, the most “famouse” rodent in Mouse Island. He works as journalist and editor for the fictional newspaper The Rodent’s Gazette. Together with his younger sister, Thea Stilton, his cousin named Trap Stilton, and his favorite little nephew, Benjamin Stilton, Geronimo Stilton takes the reader into adventures in Mouse Island and around the world.
Gab instantly fell in love with his first Geronimo Stilton book. That is why we kept on giving him a new one every time he finishes a book. Each book has about 150-200 pages. We let Gab read 20 pages at a time. Each pages are adorned with lots of illustrations and onomatopeia. For some people, these look distracting. But Gab loves seeing them.
Gab’s face would always lit up everytime he receives a new Geronimo Stilton book to read. We loved the book too. Here are five reasons why we love Geronimo Stilton.
Fun to Read. Geronimo Stilton and his friends are hilarious. Each page seems to be filled with jokes and funny moments that Gab would giggle everytime he reads them. If Gab suddenly laughs all by himself, it means he is reading a silly part in a Geronimo Stilton book
Inspires Travel. We love to travel and Geronimo Stilton books have several stories that inspires travel. Geronimo has been to Australia, Japan, Venice, America, India, Tanzania and more. Each book will provide interesting facts about each place. Gab dreams of visiting these places too.
Teaching Tool. We use Geronimo Stilton books as a teaching tool. We use it to learn new words, read maps, learn geography, history, sports, science and a lot more.
Clean Humor. Unlike other children books, there are no curse words in the books so far. The humor and words used are suitable for young readers.
Life Lessons to Learn. Geronimo Stilton can be a good role model. We sometimes refer to one of the Geronimo Stilton books to teach values like patience, respect, perseverance, family and friendship.
Geronimo Stilton books are available in most bookstores in the Philippines. Bigger stores would usually display all books from the series including the spins offs like Thea Stilton series, Kingdom of Fantasy, Journey Through Time, Creepella von Cacklefur, Cavemice, Spacemice, Micekings, and even Geronimo Stilton Graphic Novels.
We are always looking forward for the next Geronimo Stilton book. I hope Geronimo Stilton won’t stop writing his adventures for Gab to read.
