ABOUT THE BOOK

Geronimo Stilton Heromice: Mice of The Rescue - 1, created by the internationally acclaimed Italian children's author Elisabetta Dami under the famous pseudonym Geronimo Stilton, is an action-packed, highly entertaining graphic-style adventure novel. Published by Scholastic, this book serves as the explosive debut installment of the Heromice sub-series—a popular, superhero-themed spin-off of the globally beloved Geronimo Stilton universe.

The primary objective of this book is to offer an immersive, high-energy reading experience for young chapter-book readers (ages 7 to 10), combining fast-paced comic storytelling with educational vocabulary building. The plot transports readers away from New Mouse City to the futuristic, technologically advanced metropolis of Muscatraz, where the peace-loving and cowardly journalist Geronimo Stilton morphs into an accidental superhero alongside his brave companions. The book's narrative structure breaks down into several exciting themes:

• The Birth of a Hero: Documents how a regular, cheese-loving mouse gets swept up in high-stakes heroics, learning to overcome his deep-rooted fears to protect his fellow citizens.
• The Sewer Rat Syndicate: Introduces the primary antagonists—the vile, plotting Sewer Rats led by the nefarious Tony Sludge, who threaten to plunge Muscatraz into absolute chaos.
• Gadgets, Gear, and Teams: Showcases an array of fun, sci-fi vehicles and super-mouse gadgets engineered to execute complex rescue missions.
• The Power of Cooperation: Emphasizes strong underlying themes of teamwork, civic duty, and using intelligence over brute force to solve crises.

Following the signature Geronimo Stilton editorial layout, the book is printed with vibrant, full-color illustrations, cinematic comic panels, and its iconic expressive word typography (where keywords change color, font, and shape to visually reflect their meaning), making it an exceptional tool for engaging reluctant readers.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Elisabetta Dami (b. 1958) is an extraordinarily successful Italian children’s book writer and the creative mind behind the Geronimo Stilton media empire. The daughter of publisher Piero Dami, she began volunteering at children's hospitals at a young age—an experience that inspired her to create the cheerful, deeply empathetic, and adventure-prone mouse journalist to bring joy to ill children.

Writing under the collective persona of Geronimo Stilton (the editor-in-chief of The Rodent's Gazette), Dami’s authorial voice is uniquely characterized by its lighthearted wit, kinetic energy, and gentle moral compass. Her books are published globally by Scholastic Inc. and have been translated into over 49 languages with hundreds of millions of copies sold worldwide, solidifying her status as a titan of modern children's literature.
