Who could go wrong with a Geronimo Stilton book. It was a fun read and I actually learned something new. I like how the text always makes you see the words and so a reluctant reader actually learns new words. And the chapters are short enough that kids don't feel like they have much to read. This book is definitely for younger middle schoolers, but if you want a quick read this is your book. Finally, I love the short mystery in the back. It was a fun addition.
The story is about Geronimo going to a museum to find the secret for eternal youth. Of course, the scroll is stolen! Then the crew must find the scroll, while trying to discover who has stolen it. AND will they find the secret for eternal youth? You will have to read the book to find out. ( )
