October 29, 2025Me lo regalaron porque nunca había tenido uno de chica y me hacía un montón de ilusión leerme una de sus historias. Aunque he tardado mucho en leerlo, ha sido un gusto hacerlo y mi niña interior se ha emocionado un montón. En definitiva, no importa la edad que se tenga, hay que seguir leyendo y haciendo las cosas que de peques nos hubiera gustado hacer y no tuvimos oportunidad.

I loved the Thea Stilton books and was feeling very nostalgic lately so I went to my local library to read some. I had lots of fun reading this book. And can’t wait to read the others that I have borrowed from the library.

This was not a good book. I didn't like it because it was very uninteresting and the fact that they used the word mouse in words like fabulous (it was just annoying.) So I have no regret giving this book a single star. This book would be good for anyone who likes adventure, crime, and some suspense. The book is about five best friends that go on an adventure to Egypt. Along the way their teacher gets appositely lost and so they go on a hunt trying to find him. Soon they find him but he didn't get lost he had gotten kidnapped and became a prisoner then they all did. They were all prisoners because their kidnapper wanted to find the lost treasure and sell it for big money. Read the book to find out the rest but I wouldn't recommend it.

“Some experts had come to believe that the treasure was just a myth—that it didn’t really exist.”

Yeah. I heard some very mixed opinions involving the map of Egypt feeling incomplete. That’s why I give it four stars to make the author understand the importance of a finished geography.
But this book was a blast, I swear. An adventure including their history professor? I know both Professor Kraken and Ratcliff were one of them but it couldn’t get better than this. You don’t see it every so often.

This is the eleventh book in the Thea Stilton series. This books takes the Thea Sisters to Egypt to help out one of their professors over spring break in search of the ancient Treasure of the Sun. But when they arrive the professor is acting odd and then suddenly disappears. Will the girls be able to solve the mystery behind the ancient Treasure of the Sun and rescue their professor before it's too late?
This was a very interesting book about the history of Egypt and the history of many of the Pharaoh's of Egypt. Great read!

Very fast and easy read. I read this in one sitting. It was a good book. I thought the mystery aspect was really well done. It really shocked me. I really did not expect it. So, it was well put. I admire the value of family and friendship. Indeed, family and friendship are the greatest prize. And no amount of money and wealth can replace that.

Nicky, Pamela, Paulina, Violet and Colette will got to help their professor to find the treasure under the precious Egypt ground and try not let the bad guys take it.

May 29, 2020My favourite books as a child, the first one I bought with my allowance. It has a special place in my heart.

So, apparently I heard something on Amazon about these books not including Israel/Palestine/Whatever it's called on the maps. As a liberal with Jewish heritage (yes, such things happen), I ncluding neither is horrible and offensive. I'd give it negative stars (what would those be? Black holes? White/black dwarves? Neutron stars?) if I could. I love how they go so token (seriously, it's that kind of "let's do multiculturalism not because it's a good thing to do, but because we could get sued" that Toon Makers' proposed Sailor Moon adaptation suffered from) and then completely IGNORE the Middle East. So, yeah. VOID OUT OF TEN.

December 7, 2021Thea Stilton was what got me into reading in the first place. I have 16 Thea Stilton books. And i loved them all. I still love them, but i don't enjoy them as much as i used to. Because as i grow older, my interest in Young Adult Fantasy grows too. And i've been reading books by Leigh Bardugo or Victoria Aveyard. I think Thea Stilton will forever be my childhood favorite book. I love Paulina and Will, they're perfect for each other <3 (I apologize if there were misspellings or incorrect grammar, English isn't my first language and I am still learning something new everyday, so please tolerate me if there were mistakes)

Iets beter, en voornamelijk omdat dit boek over een onderwerp gaat die mij interesseert. Anders was het best saai. Ik werd gek van Pam. Kom op zeg wat een aanstellerij. Het einde was net een beetje te over de top voor mij, maar ach. Verder wel een leuk boek met lekker veel feitjes over Egypte.

Una aventura muy chula. No es que sea lo más de lo más en cuestión trama, pero es interesante. Es lo que tiene que ser para las y los lectores objetivo, que obviamente no somos los adultos. La verdad, yo me esperaba un producto peor y me ha sorprendido. Nada mal.

I really like the series. It is very fun trying to solve the mysteries before the characters, or just following along with them.

Although the ending to this case felt contrived, the fun set up and unorthodox side character puts this above the past few Thea Stilton books I've read.
