The Enormouse Pearl Heist

Geronimo Stilton is the publisher of The Rodent’s Gazette, which is the most celebrated newsletter in all of Mouse Island. He is a mild mannered mouse who lives in New Mouse City with his sister Thea, cousin and his favorite nephew, Benjamin. But as fate would have it, Geronimo is always having an adventure, which he writes about in his newsletter. This time around, it is a blistering summer and Geronimo can’t quite finish his manuscript because of the sudden arrival of his adventurous friend, Petunia Pretty Paws. Together they set out with her niece, Bugsy Wugsy and Benjamin and they come across a most magnificent oyster that is unprecedented in size. As they open its wide mouth, they find an ‘enormouse’ pearl inside the oyster. Geronimo in his customary manner returns home to his writing desk and goes onto lettering a special feature about the marvelous discovery of the ‘enormouse’ pearl. The article is a hit with every mouse that reads the Rodent’s Gazette, but then the response to the article is both good and bad. Geronimo must understand the danger he has placed upon his marvel of a pearl. Will Geronimo be able to protect the ‘enormouse’ pearl even with the help of his friends? Or will the pearl find itself in the wrong hands? The Enormouse Pearl Heist is yet another adrenalin charged book in the series and is packed with humour and wit. Written in the autobiographical styling of the lovable mouse, Geronimo himself makes use of lively interactive pages that are full-colour art and is presented in a unique format. The Enormouse Pearl Heist is the 51st book in the Stilton series and it was published in October 2012. The series is the most popular book series for children in Italy and has become famous all over the world following the translation into 35 different languages. The books are designed keeping in mind the primary readership of children aged between 6 and 12.
