About This Book
Reach for this book when your child is showing an interest in music or history but finds standard textbooks dry and unapproachable. It is perfect for a young reader who needs a boost of confidence in their own creative potential or who is struggling to stay engaged with traditional chapter books. Geronimo Stilton provides a high energy bridge between early readers and more complex middle grade novels. The story follows the beloved mouse journalist as he travels back in time to 18th-century Vienna. His mission is to protect a young Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart from a group of time-traveling cats who want to steal his musical genius. Through the lens of a fast-paced mystery, the book explores themes of teamwork, the value of hard work over short cuts, and the wonder of artistic creation. It is ideally suited for children aged 7 to 10 who enjoy visual storytelling and slapstick humor.
