Geronimo Learns to Overcome His Fears . . . Sometimes Too Well!

In Cat and Mouse in a Haunted House, we learned that Geronimo Stilton is afraid of cats . . . and things that go bump in the night. In Four Mice Deep in the Jungle, Geronimo's fear list has expanded to include leaving his home. How will The Rodent's Gazette operate without him? Geronimo knows he has a problem and seeks help from Dr. Shrinkfur by telling his troubles while lying on a soft cat-fur couch. Dr. Shrinkfur sensibly observes that solving the fears is up to Geronimo. After building his courage overnight, Geronimo goes downstairs and starts off for work. And everything bad that can happen occurs in the next 30 seconds! That's it. Will Geronimo ever leave home again? Yes, if his sister Thea has anything to do with it. Thea, cousin Trap, and favorite nephew Benjamin team up to mouse-nap Geronimo for an undisclosed location. Along the way, Geronimo is able to take his minds off his troubles by eating lots of delicious cheesy chews and meeting the lovely Penelope Poisonfur, who just happens to have the next seat on a flight to someplace far away. Flattered by Penelope's interest in him, Geronimo signs a paper she thrusts in front of him. Suddenly, he finds that he has to follow her orders at a survival school . . . or pay one million dollars. Since he doesn't have that kind of money, Geronimo is stuck. Over seven days, he starts days off chillingly and faces many of his worst fears. Strangely, he feels better after each episode. This book is in the best tradition of slapstick comedy and has a nice sex role reversal in making the female mice mentally and emotionally stronger than the male mice. If your youngster has an occasional fear or two, it will be a relief so see that Geronimo is much worse . . . yet can be helped. It's a nice soft sell for learning to overcome your fears by facing up to them. Very nice!

My 6 year old son LOVES this book!

This is a great chapter book. It keeps kids wanting to read more (or have more read to them). My husband and I have read this book MANY times to our son...who giggles each time!
