Reviews

The Thea Sisters find themselves recruited to investigate bribery and collusion at an international dance competition. Set against a Milanese backdrop—predominantly the La Scala Opera House—the five mouselings band together to help a new friend and reveal the shenanigans of Mice for Dance. The story is formulaic, although information about dance styles, terminology, and famous theaters around the world appear as entertaining sidebars. Readers diving into the series now will find no previous knowledge is necessary. Heavily illustrated in full color, this book is attractive and appealing. Enthusiastic Geronimo Stilton fans will certainly agree. Grades 2-4. --Kara Dean
