Kids book review: Geronimo Stilton Alien Escape

Geronimo Stilton Alien Escape, Scholastic Books

Geronimo Stilton Alien Escape is a science fiction story about how a mouse named Geronimo Stiltonix defeats an alien with the help of his family.

This book would be good for anyone in Grade 1 or older to read. The things that I like best about the book are the way the characters interact with each other, the excellent adventure, and the unexpected ending.

Geronimo Stiltonix, captain of the spaceship Mousestar 1, is an accident-prone, scaredy cat, distracted mouse that would rather write fiction books than be captain of a spaceship. Geronimo, his jokester cousin Trap and clever sister Thea are aboard the Mousestar 1 when the engine overheats because the batteries need new tetrasellium.

They determine that the closest planet with tetrasellium is Rattos, so they travel to orbit in Rattos' gravitational field. There they are contacted by the planet Rattos.

"Salutations, we come in peace honorable rodents of Mousestar 1! We know that your spaceship is in danger, and we have the tetrasellium you need," says the pink mice on the screen, but the crew are suspicious that it was too easy.

The aliens come and deliver the tetrasellium but it is pink and so is their spaceship. Geronimo Stiltonix tells them that tetrasellium is blue.

They discover that the pink mice aliens and the pink tetrasellium are part of a giant pink blob that lives on Rattos. The pink blob is trying to trick them to take over their ship and the universe.

I love this story because it is adventurous and has good humour.

To find out how Thea, Trap and Geronimo Stilton save the universe, I recommend that you read this awesome book.

I give it five stars out of five stars.
