The Thea Sisters are on another adventure this time they are off to Spain. The girls finally finished their exams and are ready for their two week vacation. After much discussion the five decided to stay at Mouseford Academy for the vacation period, but those plans were about to change. A package suddenly is dropped at the girls door. It is from Anita and Joaquin Vega, two dancers they had met at the World Dance Workshop they attended. The sisters were excited and curious at the same time. They had been invited to spend their vacation with the Vega's in Seville for the Feria de Abril. The sisters quickly packed their bags and were off to Seville to spend time with their friends and also to enjoy the festival, but things were about to take a change for the worse when the Vega sibling's aunts fan goes missing. The fan is a family heirloom passed down to their aunt from their famous and talented great-grandmother. The Thea Sisters knew they were in the right place at the right time and started to follow the clues to help find the heirloom and to also solve the family Vega family secret of their great-grandmother.

This was a very interesting book for sure. This is the sixteenth book in the Thea Stilton series. I enjoyed learning about Feria de Abril and what this festival entails as well as family traditions that are present throughout this festival. Learning about Spain was also interesting as the Thea Sisters did travel quite a bit throughout Spain in the book.

I like this book because it has a mission to accomplish and a mystery. The mission is to find their friend's aunt's fan and the mystery is solved in the end. I like it because they learn Spanish dancing. Last of all, all the mice are pretty. I wish I could solve a mystery!

I love anything Geronimo Stilton-related. There's nothing better than reading a handful and then discussing them with young readers who are, for the most part, fairly reluctant.

mi partono i feels quando rileggo i libri di quando ero piccola, veramente.. è una cosa straordinaria :) fare cose del genere mi mette belle sensazioni e cura la nostalgia e, anzi, vorrei avere più libri del genere ;-; ovviamente si combatte ancora una volta l'insonnia con cose del genere.. ottimo, direi.

i think,this book is suitable for kids because there is an bold word to make kids or aduults to search in the dictionary.i am malasian. but i like to read the english book to take more vocabulary and more words from the book.in my class iam just the one that like to read english book.many teachers say that i am good in english. but, iam so shy or fierce to talk to people in english because talk to people in english can make more vocabulary from that.iam very very hope that there is more boostres that sells english book in malaysia.because it is so hard to fine like it is very very limited edition in malaysia but its probaly not!!!

Het laatste echte Thea Sisters boek, hierna heb ik nog 1 boek in mijn bezit over de Thea Sisters maar met fantasie elementen. En dan hopen dat de bibliotheek al mijn reserveringen op tijd binnen heeft, anders moet ik nog wat langer wachten voordat ik verder kan met de Thea Sisters.
Dit boek was weer leuk, dit keer gaan de meiden naar Spanje, eerst voor ontspanning, maar al snel zitten ze weer vast in een spannend (wel een beetje) avontuur. We ontmoeten weer nieuwe karakters (in ieder geval voor mij aangezien ik het boek waar ze in voorkomen niet heb gelezen). Heerlijk die romantiek die weer aanwezig was in dit boek.

Thea 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)

The main characters are the same, as usual. Except the first book, where Thea actually did something instead of just write the book. The story itself was actually surprising. I had thought that Lola and Pedro had taken the fan. Instead it turned out to be Carlos. I think it was kind of boring at the end when the parents of Lola and Pedro just became friends with Anita and Joaquin's parents. To improve that they could have at least made one of them not trust trust the other. I guess Thea just didn't want to make the book too long.

HAHAHA so my sister requested me to read this because she wanted to know my thoughts about it and I MEANNNN how could I rate this lower than 4 stars this is literally a 4th grader book. But regardless, I also decided to read it for fun just because it makes me feel like a 7 year old all over again. Overall experience was absolutely cool. It's a very short story + very entertaining. Amazing graphics and cute fonts. I realized this was the 16th book in the series?? SO yes. There is a possibility I might read one of these again😂😂😂😂😂😂 FOR the purpose of having FUN!

[Jack Reynolds · Rating 3 out of 5]

I'm surprised that after the last couple mysteries, the Stilton team took a pause from the higher stakes world travel sometimes offers for the Thea Sisters, and decided to dial it back with a case centered on family rivalry. The Spanish Dance Mission was fast paced, plus had a convincing red herring that made you ponder whether the main storyline would play out in a different way. It may have lacked some of the excitement of earlier books, yet it was still pleasant enough with the series' usual charms.

[Emily · Rating 3 out of 5]

The book had a lot of action and interesting facts, but I like Geronimo Stilton more. There were too many mice to keep track of in this book and I didn’t like the little magnifying glasses that asked you questions. I still liked it, but it wasn’t my favorite.

[Krithik Vallem · Rating 4 out of 5]

Another book from my sisters collection. I thought it might have a similar plot to Bollywood movie “Happy New Year” based on the summary and cover, but it doesn’t really. Still, it was a fairly enjoyable read, and my younger self would have eaten this series up like I did with the counterpart Geronimo Stilton books.

this book was fantastic.

[Samantha · Rating 4 out of 5]

Error: The word "unconscious" in the book should be "subconscious". Violet's idea came from her subconscious; unconscious is something completely different.
