The new computer generated illustrations make the characters too generic. I miss the rodent charms.

There was really no mystery.It was obvious that the two rodents did it.

*REREAD at 2020*

It was a bit of a letdown, to be honest. It was just only an okay simple read. This mystery’s too easy. Plus, it’s obvious who the culprit is.

But I was kind of bothered when that guy who worked at the flower auction didn’t mention every single detail. If he’s trying to describe someone, he should include everything especially the color of their outfit. If he did, the search party would have gone a different direction.

The Great Tulip Heist was more engaging than its preceding Thea Sisters mystery. Its fast pace and dynamic unspooling of clues made the first half challenging to put down. Though the series is starting to fall back on plot devices its other mysteries have done (and done better), I do like getting the chance to come back to Thea Stilton and see what the Sisters are up to next.

Я давно хотіла зазирнути в унікальний книжковий всесвіт Джеронімо і Теа Стілтон, який за 25 років своєї історії налічує більше 300 книг і був перекладаний на 49 мов! Книги про мишині пригоди продаються цілими колекціями та серіями. В Україні я знайшла лише історії Джеронімо, але є ще окремі колекції його сестри Теа ✨, які я думаю скоро теж перекладуть на українську.

Пригоди Теа і Джеронімо - це мабуть найкраще що я б читала якби була дитиною 6-13 років. Та мені і зараз дуже зайшло! Особливо стилістика - це взагалі окрема тема. Вся книга в чудових ілюстраціях і весь текст в дружньому веселому та анімаційному форматі, що дуже заоохочує до читання. Все як я люблю прям, і ще й сюжет з загадковою історією, яка відбувається в Амстердамі в найкращих його квіткових локаціях!

Однозначно залишу у себе в колекції цю мишину перлину від талановитої італійської письменниці Елізабети Дамі 🐭.

Compared to the other books I read from this series’s this book was not that much interesting , the story begins very slow and then it starts to become more involving but then gets boring again . Some of the chapters were very intriguing but there isn’t huge storyline , it like any other book , some one gets kindnapped and his or her friends help find them with the smallest clue they find . I would rate this book 2 outof 5 stars . You can read the book once maybe twice but no one can read three times . Some books you can read so many times that you will not get bored , and stil be very interested but this book isn’t like that reading this book more then two times is a big thing .

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)

While Violet is taking art class in the Netherlands her friends father suddenly disappeared! So it was a good book but in every book it kind of is the same idea so it was a little boring. So this book was interesting they found clues out of the blue though so it did not make sense otherwise it was fine. I really like about how when any problem comes up they always call up their friends so that is some good Girl Power. It was very creative though and I did not know that there was a flower called the black tulip. It was a good book

OMG, Netherlands and the tulips 🌷 just amazing. I didn’t know a lot of things about Netherlands expect the fact that there are a lot of flowers in there. The story, the drama and the search was very good. I wish I had read this when I was a kid. I would have loved it as much as I love it now. 🌷🌷💐💐🌷🌹🌺🌻🌼🌸💐🌸🌷🌷🌹🌻🌼🌸🌺

Weer een leuk Thea Sisters-boek! Grappig dat het in Nederland afspeelt, alle cliché’s komen voorbij. De zevenjarige vindt dat prima, en lost ook graag gaandeweg het mysterie op. De quizjes en puzzels achterin waren ook een hit (de info over het land minder, maar daar is ze wellicht nog wat te jong voor.)!

The book I read was called Thea Stilton and the great Tulip Heist. This book is about for girls Nicky -Colette-Pamela-Paulina and Violet but there group name is called The Thea Sisters. And when Violet is taking an art class with her friend Hendrik he invites her for dinner with his father.But when they get there he is gone and hendrik thinks something has happened to him. So Violet called the Thea Sisters and they are on the case. And are asking people everywhere looking for clues. They also find out about the black tulip (a secret organization) and follow them into a secret place covered in tulips. But the rest you will have to find out and read it for yourself.


I like this book because its just like a Geronimo Stilton book but his sister Thea Stilton is writing it .Thea Stilton is nothing like her brother she loves adventure.And is pretty much not afraid of anything.Geronimo Stilton writes about his adventures. Thea Stilton writes about The Thea Sisters and sometimes her adventures with them.The thing that got me most excited was when one of the Thea Sisters (Violet) looked like she was in love with Hendrik.It looked like they really cared for each other.

The book I am doing my good reads on is called Thea Stilton and the great tulip Heist by Geronimo Stilton. I think the theme for this book is “ Don’t trust specific people with your things”, what I mean by specific people is people who want or have intrest in your valuable things. The person who tells the story are the main characters who are Thea Stilton, Violet, Paulina, Pamela, Nicky, Colette, Jan, and Casper Van Garten. Violet meets Jan at her art class, he invites her to dinner which Jan’s dad is cooking (Casper). When they get to Jan’s house his dad is gone (his dad is also a botanist) when they go to Caspers green house where he has been woking on a new tulip hybrid called the “Black Tulip”.

When Jan looks around he donsen’t find his dad in the greenhouse but he dosen’t find the black tulip either, and there was no reason why his dad could have moved it case Casper left it there to study it. Vilolet calls her friends to help them find Casper. He was missing and so was the tulip , they were looking around and founs clues. At the end they did find out where someone was and who did what! Overall this book was a good book.

Haha, mooi dat de continuïteit niet goed loopt in dit boek. Immers in het boek over Parijs hadden ze al bloemen gegeten, maar het kwam net over alsof het allemaal nieuw was voor ze. Wel jammer.
Verder was het verhaal dan wel weer leuk, zeker extra leuk dat het plaatsvond in mijn landje. Het mysterie was ook lekker spannend. En ook de romantiek (wat dat zou ik het wel noemen) was lief.
Oh, en hebben ze de oude illustrator ontslagen of zo? Want de tekeningen zijn echt heel anders. Meer details, andere stijl, en veel meer.
