Rate this book
Enter the world of Geronimo Stilton, where another funny adventure is always right around the corner. Each book is a fast-paced adventure with lively art and a unique format kids 7-10 will love. Jumpin' gerbil babies, I was so excited! I was heading to America for the first time ever. Thea, Trap, and Benjamin were all coming with me. And we were going to visit a real ranch and go riding and herding cattle cowboy-style! It was sure to be my most whisker-licking-good adventure yet.***This is the first Geronimo adventure set in the U.S. and written specifically for the U.S. market.***

another installation for the neo novels

‘twas a wild ride as he predicted the plot twists, and yes, his flabbers were gasted as Geronimo revealed… it was all a dream.

“What!! It was all Fake?? IT WAS ONLY A DREAM?
small neo was thoroughly jebaited, and very upset Bessie the Bull did not show up until the end.

he’s also becoming a big fan of characters with southern accents. in neo’s best cowboy impression he went:
“this town ain’t big enuf for the two of us!” 🤠

I love cowboys and when i was younger used to pretend i was n a rodeo and played like that. the book just kinda reminded me of that. the book was mainly about the evil cowboy and Geronimo's fight. they had a bet. the bet was that if Geronimo would win the fight with the other cowboys bull then he would open the water tank. all the people faced difficulties as they had to walk a lot for water and opening the water tank would be really helpful for them. but the the evil cowboy wasn't evil as he was a sheriff but he was quite mean. my favourite part was obviously the fight as it was the main idea and the reason this book was written. my favourite character was the sheriff because he is super duper plus 100 million times evil why you ask because he was so foolish and he blocked the water pipe omg he is the worst person in the world

Geronimo Stilton, fraidy-mouse extraordinaire, is traveling to the Wild West! Geronimo is the editor of the local newspaper. He is a calm mouse. He is a mouse who enjoys sitting at home, listening to classical music and drinking a nice cup of hot cheddar cheese tea.

Geronimo learns to rope and ride in the Wild West and he stands up to the town bullies. In the end ... well you have to read the book to find that out.

I enjoyed reading this Geronimo Stilton book as it addressed Native American tribes to some extent, delivered great vocabulary regarding horses, and actually threw in a little twist at the end. Stilton fans will love reading this book.

I think this book was adventurous because he always used to live in rat city and when Geronimo Stilton when to the wild wild west he was not adapted to that life so they had to get adapted so they were going to be there for a few months and when they when back to rat city they miss the wild wild west because they were already adapted to the city is it was uncountable in rat city because there was no horses, different cloth and different houses and a different way of life

I really saw a big improvement from Geronimo's life. When he visited the Wild West, he was still a fraidy mouse. Later on, he missed traveling to the Wild West and asked his family to join him. Of course his family will say yes because they LOOOVEEE traveling!!! Geronimo improve and I'm really happy about it :)

I might be getting to old for this series but they are just fun short stories.


I am not sure what else i should say about this book other than it was short, funny and enjoyable too.

"Geronimo Stilton was born in New Mouse City, Mouse Island. He is the editor and publisher of The Rodent's Gazette, New Mouse City's most widely read daily newspaper. He is the author of more than 40 adventure novels, and the recipient of the Ratitzer Prize for his books The Curse of the Cheese Pyramid and The Search for Sunken Treasure. In his spare time, Mr. Stilton collects antique cheese rinds and plays golf. He also enjoys telling stories to his nephew Benjamin."

Used with grades 3-4 class "The Wild Wild West" is an interesting book with lots of fun characters that children enjoy. Students really enjoyed creating their own character maps to visualize the story.

Miss 5 listened to this by audiobook and enjoyed it so much that she asked for another. (After we listened to all of the audiobook Geronimo Stilton's that we could borrow, we started buying and borrowing the physical books; it helped that she was already very familiar with the characters and their quirks).

Miss 5 and I like to explore different books and authors at the library, sometimes around particular topics or themes. We try to get different ones out every week or so; it's fun for both of us to have the variety and to look at a mix of new & favourite authors.

Este libro trata de una nueva aventura del Ratón Gerónimo Estilton. El quiere ser valiente pero en el fondo es un poco cobarde. Resulta que su familia viene a su casa y le dice-¡Vamos a vivir una aventura!, y se van al Salvaje Oeste. Allí les ocurren muchas cosas de acción y conocen a mucha gente.
A este libro le doy 5 estrellas, y se lo recomiendo a niños de todas las edades por que es muy divertido. Me lo regaló una amiga.

In this book, they go to an adventure to the wild wild west. They had a big problem where a guy tied to be 100% of the country. They had to do something quickly or else people in that country won't have water to drink.

After watching countless hours worth of old westerns with my Grandma, this book just seemed like an old friend. A very “Wild West” story line with some lovely inserts about the Native Americans who originally inhabited the west.

Una nueva aventura de Gerónimo Stilton. Esta vez Gerónimo se enfrenta a un toro furioso para salvar a los habitantes de Cactus City, en el Salvaje Oeste. ¿Conseguirá domarlo? Pero esta historia tiene una sorpresa final. Nota de mi hijo: Excelente. Nota mía: Bueno.

Very appropriate for kids and entertaining for young readers with its pictures, comics, and font. Very funny and good plot. The ending was very lame but oh well.
