‘Geronimo Stilton Reporter #4: The Mummy With No Name' by Geronimo Stilton is a graphic novel adventure.
When a field trip to visit the mummies at New Mouse City Museum discovers that one of the mummies might be wandering about, brings a new story to Geronimo Stilton and his friend Professor Hyro Glyff.
This is a good story for young readers. The art and plot are captivating.
I enjoyed this page turning book. It was well written. Glad that I read it. Geronimo Stilton never dissapoints. When I need a relaxing book, I check this author.
This was a cute, quick read. Geronimo Stilton is a series that gives me nostalgia as I read it all throughout primary school. They are fun, goofy reads and I enjoy them as they hold a soft spot in my heart. Fun with a fast paced mystery. I will say it did feel kind of rushed.
I will say though that I prefer the novels to the graphics novels but still fun to read. Also, as these are targeted towards a younger audience the mystery wasn't obviously complex but sometimes it's good to read these stories too.
Looking for more fun with the mouse reporter Geronimo Stilton and his family and friends? This is my favorite volume out of four thus far in the “Geronimo Stilton Reporter” series published by Papercutz.
This story first takes place with Geronimo Stilton’s nephew Benjamin being on a field trip with his school at the Museum about ancient Egypt. A kid wandering around saw someone that looked like a mummy and went screaming back to his classmates which caused quite a commotion. Later Benjamin goes over to his uncle Geronimo Stilton and tells him about it and urges his uncle to investigate as a possible news story since Geronimo is a news reporter. Reluctantly Geronimo agrees and his sister Thea and cousin Trap joins along for the adventure!
There were some twists and turns and suspense that I really enjoyed in this graphic novel; my daughters were committed with their full attention as I read it to them and they were literally off the edge of their seat when I read it to them. I love that this story is a mystery with mystery one on who was the person dressed up as a mummy and secondly why was the treasure or prize the “mummy” was after? Readers will find out in the end!
The illustration for this book was well done. My girls enjoyed it.

ARC Copy...good adaptation of the corresponding cartoon episode, including the antics of Geronimo Stilton himself and fun choice for fans of the series.
I am a great fan of the Geronimo Stilton series and the brave and funny characters that are found there . This title also has the added attraction of being about my favourite subject - Ancient Egypt. What a great combination and I love the way that the names have been blended to include a nod to real names, but also including a reference to rats. This is a brilliant graphic story for Primary age children as well as for many adults.
Geronimo Stilton is a famous mouse reporter. In this graphic novel, Geronimo's nephew Benjamin runs into a mummy at the museum. Although Geronimo claims he is no detective, he is on the case along with Thea and Trap.
I love Geronimo Stilton. They are well written, talking animal tales that kids love. Kids will also love these graphic novel adaptations because the action is still intense and the illustrations are beautiful.
Thank you to NetGalley for this ARC.
Another wonderful Geronimo Stilton adventure. As always, the characters are inviting, the illustrations so colorful and action-packed, and the dialogue intriguing. What's even more enticing than all of those qualities is the message that is conveyed in each book. Violence is never involved and the necessity of showing respect and conciliation towards each other is mandatory.
