Where the Geronimo Stilton series begins: a treasure map reaches a cautious newspaper editor, his relatives refuse to let him ignore it, and a sea voyage follows whether he likes it or not.
Elisabetta Dami created the series, and this first book establishes everything that comes after it: the anxious hero, the pushy family, the puzzles, the jokes and the unmistakable page design. For children moving into chapter books it works as an easy starting point, since no earlier volumes are needed and the chapters are short enough to finish quickly.
