Bruce Hyena has decided that his nervous friend needs toughening up, and he is not the sort to take no for an answer. What follows is a training programme no sensible mouse would ever agree to.
Geronimo is pushed through deserts and polar cold, introduced to animals he would rather admire from a distance, and generally put in situations that test whether calm is something a person can learn. Then a real weather disaster hits Mouse Island and the training stops being theoretical. The book keeps the series format of short chapters, colour illustrations and decorated text, and the humour comes from the gap between Geronimo's fear and what he actually manages to do.
Worth knowing before you start:
• An extreme training storyline that runs from desert heat to polar ice
• A natural disaster finale that puts the lessons to a real test
• Encounters with intimidating animals played for laughs
• Colour artwork throughout in the familiar series layout
Suited to children aged seven to ten who like their adventures funny and their heroes anxious. Available in English at Boipoka.
