Tuesday november 8 2011 The secret of the sphinx

My book review is about a mouse that went on a big adventure. The book is called, **The secret of the sphinx**. I choes this book beacuse it looks intoresting and its really a cool book. First Geronimo Stilton talks about what is the book about. This is what he said, " IT all began on a very cold winter morning. New mouse city had been Paralyzed by a three foot Blanket of snow for days"

In a couple pages Its all about snow and Geronimo Stilton did not want to go out. After a while someone was at the door. When Geronimo opend the door there was now one there just a snowman. After his counsined came and start throwing snow at him. His counsin name is Trap Stilon. Trap said to Geronimo, " you my friend don't like any seasons.

Geronimo said, "in spring, there's too much wind, In summer its to hot, and in fall there are too many LEAVES on the ground.

Later on Geronimo got frozed. Some of his frinds saw him and took him to a lab.

After when this professor unfrozed him he said " you guyd need to go to the spinx to change History. In this book there is some informotion about the sphinx. I recommend this book who likes Geronimo Stilon and who likes adventure books because if you don't like adventure books you might think it will be bouring.

My favourite part of the book is the ending because the slove all the problems and after all they founded some bad guys.

Heres some information about the sphinx.
