### From Booklist

For readers who have worked their way through the multitude of books in the
Geronimo Stilton franchise, here is something only slightly different. Meet
Geronimo Stiltonoot, Stone Age Cavemouse and ancient ancestor of Geronimo
Stilton. Interestingly enough, Mr. Stiltonoot's life is quite similar to that
of his popular descendant's, except with mock-prehistoric trappings of the
Flintstones variety. Stiltonoot's adventures are told in the tried-and-true
format, i.e., ample colorful illustrations, diagrams, maps, words in the text
frequently enlarged in a dizzying variety of fonts, and side blocks with bits
of information and nonsense. Here Stiltonoot must overcome many perils to
rescue the famous Stone of Fire stolen from the mouseum by the evil Tiger
Khan. Literary references include Agatha Christie and Sherlock Holmes;
however, the plot is more in the nature of Indiana Jones. Fans of the other
Geronimo Stilton books will definitely embrace the over-the-top silliness in
this new spin-off. Grades K-4. --Randall Enos
