Ik heb dit boek jaren geleden gekocht, maar voor de rest nooit aangeraakt. Ondertussen ben ik er een beetje te oud voor geworden, maar ik heb besloten om het toch een kans te geven. Ik vond het een leuk boek, ook al is het vooral voor jongere kinderen bedoeld. Het verhaal was leuk en de boodschap van het verhaal is erg leerzaam bedoeld. Daarnaast zaten er door het boek heen ook nog aparte levenslessen in aan de hand van notities. Het is dus niet alleen een leuk boek voor kinderen, maar ook een erg leerzaam boek voor kinderen.

My favourite character in this book is Geronimo Stilton because he is funny. And my favourite part was when they went to the Land of Toys because I really liked all the toys, like robots, balloons, planes!

This was the book I've read wid the most pages but its Geronimo so not much words either. Wat i like abt these Geronimo books r they r so creative and have brilliant idea to show and describe a noun. The names given also describes it well. In this book i had fun lookin to the crystal key everytime it's not that easy too but still it was fun. Sth that annoying was the riddles and the page where they showed the letter of another fantasy kingdom's language, i kept forgetting the page. They were many different kingdoms which I can't take my eyes off. Each one looks as imaginative as it sounds. The details and names given for each place i get to find a new word in every name. I truly enjoyed reading this book.

Lo sé, lo sé, qué hago leyendo esto con 21 años y qué narices hago dándole 5 estrellas.

Esta saga de libros fue con lo que empecé a adentrarme en los cuentos y en los mundos de fantasía, y siempre siempre siempre serán de 5 estrellas, porque no se puede poner más en esta aplicación.

Desde el punto de vista más objetivo que puedo tener, puedo decir que es un libro divertido e ingenioso, pero, sobre todo, que contiene unas enseñanzas maravillosas. Sí, dirigidas a gente de ocho años, pero eso es lo que lo convierte en un gran libro (súper objetiva con todos esos adjetivos eh). Porque, vale, leo ahora frases sobre la belleza de la amistad, lo contagiosa que es la felicidad o la importancia de la paz en el mundo, y una parte de mí se ríe con amargura. Pero que te enseñen ese tipo de cosas (me atrevería incluso a decir “valores”) con ocho años, no tiene precio. Y ahora que he vuelto 13 años después, entiendo que ese tipo de cosas se quedaron de alguna manera en mi cabeza.

¡Quién sabe! En fin, una maravilla volver a esta saga. Por supuesto que voy a leer todos los demás libros de mi estantería porque lo merecen.

It's a great book for starters! Many colourful pictures to help readers visualise better. Those depictions help to get young readers interested & pick up reading.
The book includes some life lessons to be learned as well

Non rileggevo questa serie di libri da una vita, e mi ha colpito (molto positivamente) vedere un sacco di dettagli per niente scontati in un libro per bambini. C'é un accenno ai distrubri alimentari, un personaggio é sordo e il linguaggio dei segni ha un ruolo fondamentale, e il significato di fondo é che la famiglia non é necessariamente una cosa di sangue. Non ricordavo nulla di tutto ció, ed é stata una piacevolissima riscoperta.

[Arish Haq · Rating 5 out of 5]

This has taught me a very important lesson about anger. You can't always find happiness but it does not hurt to search for it. Geronimo Stilton was searching for the heart of happiness in the kingdom of Fantasy. Do you know where to find the heart of happiness? read to find out!

[Chiara · Rating 5 out of 5]

Molto bello come libro e perfetto per i bambini pk si devono trovare le chiavi in alcune pagine e come da copertina c è una pagina che profuma di cioccolato.
Nel mio libro con il passare del tempo l odore è un po svanito, però si sente ancora

[Vaibhav Rai · Rating 5 out of 5]

This is an amazing book filled with humours incidents and exiting adventures and places. It also contains some additional facts. From Geronimo stuffing his face with 101plates of spaghetti to boils eating the stairs of the house of the gingerbread Man to swimming through a honey moat. It is one o
of the best books I read.

[Prarthana Rajeev · Rating 5 out of 5]

The quest for paradise is a very interesting story of the return of Geronimo Stilton to the kingdom of fantasy. Blossom need his help to find the heart of happiness. The heart finders club is on the journey to find the heart of happiness. The adventure is waiting for the club.

[Christine · Rating 5 out of 5]

Geronimo Stilton and the Heart Finders Club went on this amazing journey where there were powerful moments, scary moments, and loving moments.First they took a trip to the Land Of Ogres were they met a whole family of Ogres. The Father's named Baldsquash, the mom's named Whimsy, and their 2 kids were Lilirick and Oudbelly. Geronimo had to pass all of them to find the map to the heart of happiness. Will he find it? Their next stop was The Land Of Sweets. They found the Queens Court, where they asked the Queen a question. When they got there, she had a test for him before she could tell him anything. Will he Pass the test? All Aboard next stop is The Land Of Toys where Geronimo helped a little sad horse, then he went to visit the King, King-In-The-Box. He asked the King a question. The king said he would answer after he played a game of chess with him. Will the king tell him the answer to his question? Gold,Gold,Gold and Gold, welcome to The Land of Gold. When they got there it was quiet, too quiet. They went to the The Golden Castle, where the queen was made out of Gold. Will the Heart Of Happiness be there? Last but not least,they went to The Land Of Fairy Tales. They had to ask a book at first where the Heart of Happiness was, and they thought it was a joke but they did. Will the book reveal where the Heart of happiness is? They returned to the land of faries but as they returned, Geronimo fell in a tunnel...



A lesson I learned from this book was if circumstances in life change,don't give up because if you do you will make yourself unhappy just like Geronimo did but he tried again and fufill his happnies

I would recommend this book to kids and adventurous people because Geronimo takes an amzing trip to all these aventrous places and most kkids like aventrous books.

The author of this book is Geronimo Stilton. The real author’s name is not their so he / she wants it to be a secret. The author makes it look like it was written by a mouse, for example Geronimo lives in NEW MOUSE CITY. The book’s title is THE RETURN TO THE KINGDOM OF FANTASY THE QUEST FOR PARADISE.
The book starts off when Geronimo’s cousin Trap having a spaghetti eating contest and you have to eat one hundred plates of spaghetti. Geronimo won the contest and had a tummy ach so he goes home and goes to bed. Then he wakes up to the sound of singing and looks up to find the Rainbow Dragon.
The Rainbow Dragon takes Geronimo to the Kingdom of Fantasy. He arrives at the kingdom of the fairies and Blossom the queen of the fairies. Blossom wants Geronimo to go on a quest for paradise so Geronimo wants to make a heart finders club. The first one to join the heart finders club was Goosey BLA BLA no lie that is her real name in the book because she likes to talk a lot. Then Oscar the bug joins, then Boils the chameleon, then its Rocket the unicorn.
Queen Blossom wants the heart finders club to go through all the other kingdoms to find clues and keys to help them find the heart of happiness. The first kingdom they travel through is the kingdom of ogres and the last kingdom they go through is the land of fairy tales and then they went back to the kingdom of the fairies. Queen Blossom just made them go through all the kingdoms so they would have friendship, while the heart of happiness was in the kingdom of the fairies all along.
That is the book that I read by Geronimo Stilton that is my favorite series.

[Charles · Rating 2 out of 5]

Having decided to try one Geronimo Stilton book, considering all the attention and popularity the series is getting and how much my eleven-year old cousin loves it as well, I was disappointed and concerned.

My first impressions were positive. How could they not have been? A lot of detail was given to the publication of this book, which much have cost a considerable amount of money. It is definitely an eye-catching book, from the colourful illustrations to all the book's maps and fantastical elements. As far as publications go, this book was top-notch. I can understand some of the charm of the series as well, since it tries to incorporate some humour and puzzle-solving.

Nevertheless, I fear this is all that it has going for it. I understand that it was intended to be read by children of ages between nine to eleven years old. But so were the books written by Enid Blyton. And what a far cry between the two! Although the latter does not attempt to include all the ridiculous magical lands one could think of all in one plot, Blyton focuses more on the moral of the particular story, to much greater effect.

One should understand that the real author of these books, Elisabbetta Dami, with all due respect, is an Italian, and Italians, understandably, have very different standards of English. The book is infantile, to say the least. It does not reach, in my opinion, the standard of many bilingual countries. And I find it hard to recommend these sort of books when authors like Enid Blyton did such a better job.

Parents, therefore, should be wary of these sort of translations as they have a more lax standard as regards to children's literature.

In de tijd dat de boeken van Geronimo Stilton uitkwamen, keek ik er sceptisch naar. Als ik in de boeken keek, viel mijn oog op volle, drukke pagina's, met verschillende lettertypes en plaatjes. Het trok mij nooit om te lezen. Voor een opdracht van school moest ik er nu wel aan geloven.

Het boek was niet iets wat mij trok, ook niet toen ik aan het lezen was. Het duurde daardoor ook vrij lang voor het uit was, omdat ik gewoon geen zin had om het te lezen. Het was voor mij te onrustig met al die plaatjes en verschillende kleurtjes en lettertypes. Toch was de beoordeling beter dan ik van tevoren verwacht had.

Ik snap namelijk wel waarom dit aantrekkelijke boeken zijn voor kinderen om te lezen. Zij zullen die kleurtjes en plaatjes en lettertypes waarschijnlijk aantrekkelijk vinden. En het boek staat vol leuke opdrachten: zoek de sleutel, een geurplaatje, je kan je eigen gegevens invullen. Hierdoor wordt het boek interactief en dat maakt kinderen denk ik meer betrokken bij het lezen van het boek. Ik denk daarom dat dit leuke boeken zijn voor kinderen die nog niet zo enthousiast zijn over het lezen of die dat wat moeilijker vinden. Daarvoor zou ik het speciaal aanraden. Zelf houd ik het nog steeds liever bij andere boeken waar ik niet zo afgeleid word van alles wat er gebeurd en zelf in mijn fantasie plaatjes kan bedenken bij het verhaal.

The second book in the Kingdom of Fantasy series, this book takes Geronimo Stilton back to the Kingdom of Fantasy as the Queen of the Fairies, Blossom, has asked for his help in finding the Heart of Happiness for her, but before he is able to find the HEart of Happiness he has to find the Map of Paradise first, along with hidden crystal key treasures along the way. Not knowing why he needs these keys he keeps them knowing the answer will come to him when it is ready to reveal itself. With his new friends he travels through unknown lands to find the answers and treasures he seeks to obtain the Heart of Happiness for Blossom.

This book was good but not as good as the first book in the series. I was kind of bored with this book, but I did like trying to find the Crystal Keys with Geronimo throughout the book, but I felt that each of the kingdoms he went too were lacking in the mystery or task he had to go through in order to pass through the kingdom, something was missing. Still a good book and of course written in the typical Geronimo Stilton style
