We've recently discovered the wonderful world of Geronimo Stilton. Always on the look out for a good long series (having exhausted Casa de Arbol and Capitan Calzoncillos), the Geronimo Stilton series of books (up to 33 with more coming out next year) is a funny, punny, fast paced set of chapter books with great illustrations and playful typography.
The Spanish is accessible and the vocabulary is rich but not obscure so kids will be able to easily figure out the words within the context of the sentence. There's a little bit of of the vosotros (-ais/-eis) but not enough to be inpenetrable.
Who is Geronimo Stilton?
Geronimo Stilton is the international bestselling author of the
Geronimo Stilton chapter book series --- and he's a mouse! His United
States publishing company, Scholastic, calls him a VIR (Very Important
Rodent) and hails him as a big cheese.
Geronimo is the editor of the New Mouse City newspaper, The Rodent's Gazette.
Although Geronimo likes to stay home with his nice couch and his huge
fridge full of cheddar, Swiss and Bleu cheeses, he often finds himself
traveling afar --- and having the most incredible jaunts ever.
Geronimo became an author when he decided to write down the many
exciting adventures he shares with his sister Thea, cousin Trap, nephew
Benjamin, and other nice, I mean "mice," characters. His first book,
the bestselling LOST TREASURE OF THE EMERALD EYE, was warmly welcomed
by readers who are now pouncing on each new book. In spite of his
newspaper duties and his frequent escapades, Geronimo is a prolific
writer. There will be a new Geronimo Stilton adventure once a month.
