Geronimo Stilton: The Kingdom of Fantasy
I knew from the start that it was no ordinary day, but I certainly didn't expect to find a golden staircase in my attic. Up at the top, there was a door. And beyond the door was a world I never could have imagined -- the Kingdom of Fantasy! Along with my guide, a frog named Scribblehopper, I set off on an incredible adventure to save the Queen of the Fairies. But along the way, I had to face giant scorpions, witches, sea serpents, pixies, and dozens of other creatures that I had only ever heard stories about. Holey cheese, what a journey! Could I save the Queen . . . and my own tail?

Non mi pento di nulla!
Quando ero piccina picciò, vidi a una fiera una bancarella che aveva questo e altri meravigliosissimi libri sfavillanti. Inutile dire che lo desiderai subito ardentemente, vedendo che era tutto diviso per colori (era già una fissa infantile) e che inoltre conteneva profumi e altri odori da sfregare per immergersi nei mondi fantasy in cui viaggia Geronimo. La mamma, per non viziarmi, disse di sceglierne solo uno fra quelli che mi interessavano, e così andò che ne presi un altro (con la copertina glitterata, bellissimo). L'anno dopo mi regalarono il secondo della "serie", ma la delusione quando scoprii che c'era un'unica pagina profumata e niente suddivisioni sui colori dell'arcobaleno la delusione fu cocente.
Per anni ho covato il segretissimo desiderio di possedere questo volumone colorato e fantasioso (sì, anche da grande), così quando sono cresciuta l'ho comprato senza rimpianti e senza colpo ferire e ho aspettato ben 3 anni per leggerlo per la prima volta.
E così, eccomi qui. 5*

The book that I finished reading is called The Kingdom of Fantasy by Geronimo Stilton. it is a about the main character, Geronimo Stilton, being visited by the Dragon of the Rainbow, and being told that he needs to travel to the Kingdom of Fantasy to retrieve the 32 Crystal Keys. The keys will lead him to this door where he has to open it, and travel down this long hallway to this fountain, where he will find the 7 jewelled hearts. He will have to find one and bring it back to the Queen of the Fairies, Blossom. Throughout the book, he meets a very talkative young goose named Goose Blah Blah. He also meets a chameleon who loves anything sweet, named Boils, and a very helpful, small, and sweet cockroach named Oscar. And the last person that helps him throughout his journey in the Kingdom of Fantasy is a very quiet, young lady named Snowy.
The setting is essential to this story because without the setting, this story would be just a bunch of different chapters talking about going somewhere, but not describing what is going on and what it looks like, and everything else that makes the setting what it really is meant to be, and meant to be experienced.
I would rate this book 5 stars because I really enjoyed it and I learned that no matter how old you are, you can still enjoy using my imagination to put myself inside the book, and experience myself being right there with the main character, every step of the way. It’s like I’m right there with them, helping them along their journey across the Kingdom of Fantasy.

I bought this for one of my students, so I thought I'd have the liberty to tuck my paws in it first. What it gave me was a headache. And they thought that colouring and beautifying WORDS would make a storyline more interesting. Nooo. Sure, people are getting more visual nowadays, and kids think the beautifuler the graphics, the better the quality.
I have to say that the prettier the fonts, the less solid the plot. This one reads like a magazine - bland, with no intriguing plot, but random snippets like pages from a fun fact book.
I was disappointed, because, hey, I did buy it because I thought it was pretty. Turned out that the garish fonts gave me a reading concussion. If I were a kid, I'd be put off reading.
But I'd still let my kids read this, because.. I may very well belong to a different generation, and mindset. I'd like to get the kid into reading, and I thought this one would be a good weaning off his comic books. Let's see.
And I didnt like the cheap rip off of Harry Potter and Alice in Wonderland. Oh, and James Bond too. Not funny, Geronimo Stilton, not funny. Bland, hollow, nothing much, really :(.
But I have to admit I liked the mythology bits. I thought that it was quite awesome. But it turned out they didn't tie very deeply into the plot. What kids need are imagination and the ability to weave their own story. Spelling it out, and drawing it out for them will see a generation of idle creativists. Stunted brain.

I really like this book (my brother actually recommended this to me) because it has some of my favorite genres on it, it has fantasy, and adventure which I like the most on books. But this book is different, it has these secret codes, fantasian language. Kingdom of the Witches, Trolls, Dragons, Gnomes, Fairies, Giants, and Mermaids. So basically the story is about Geronimo having a bad day and the actual date is June 21 which in their time is a magical day. So going back, Geronimo is having a very bad day at the office, but when he comes home, there is no electricity so he basically needs to go to the attic to find some candles, but he stumbles into this Music Box with all precious Jewels in it like Emerald, Ruby, Diamond, Sapphire, Citrine, Topaz and Amethyst. So there is this message that is in Fantasian Language. Geromino enters a world of Fantasy and other fun things that he is afraid of. So now, he needs to travel 6 Kingdoms to save the Fairy Queen named Blossom. You need to read the rest of the book to find out what else happens, I tell you, it is interesting. I recommend this book to the people who really likes fantasy and adventure books plus Geronimo Stilton books!!!!

No em funcionava bé el wi-fi i estava atrapat a Taradell, vaig agafar aquest llibre que vaig llegir per primer cop fa més de 15 anys i m’he adonat que no és que fos un màquina quan me’l vaig llegir super-ràpid de petit, és que el llibre es llegeix sol. També algunes pàgines ja no fan l’olor que feien, tampoc té la millor trama del món (van molt de pressa a treure’s les coses de sobre, no mantenen el suspens en quasi cap moment), tampoc és especialment divertit i sovint peca de ser bastant cursi, però aquest llibre no és per mi, és de l’Albert de 9 anys, així que el perdonem<3

The kingdom of fantasy is a series which is part of the Geronimo stilton books.the first book was awesome and I think the rest of them would be just as good. it was a fantastic journey filled with magical creatures ,witches, sea serpents and a lot more.in this book Geronimo has to complete the mission which is to save the Fairy Queen Blossom who was attacked by the evil witch. My favourite character in this book is Scribblehopper because he was kind and I also felt really bad for him because the queen of witches turned his daughter into the red phoenix who helped Geronimo and scribble hopper. My favourite part of this book was when Geronimo thought he was dreaming because i thought it was quite funny and silly. this book was like all of my imagination combined. it took me a to a fantasy i never thought i'd go.

Odore di piedi e puzza di formaggio
Non pensavo esistesse una collana di libri che potesse superare la valanga di seguiti de "Alla ricerca della Valle Incantata"...ah no, quei cartoni sgangherati direct-to-video sono ancora in vantaggio.
L'utilizzo di odori impressi su carta - alcuni abbastanza uguali tra loro, misteri dell'infanzia - e quello scalcagnato cd con le musichette trash esercitano un fascino non indifferente sul bambino che entra all'interno del genere fantasy; superato il target, il progetto si palesa per quello che realmente rappresenta: una bella commercialata spillasoldi con cui tenere in ostaggio qualche genitore con figlioletto irrequieto.
Resta un piccolo frammento d'infanzia il cui omaggio rimane doveroso, nonostante tutto.

I liked this book best (x10 times). The colour of the kingdoms were those of the rainbow. And the trolls were the stinkiest creatures I'd ever read, and they had root canals and cavities.They didn't even wash themselves for a millennium. They only washed themselves in the smell pool every single day! Ugh!

I think Geronimo Stilton is going to many different types or kind of adventures. At last he saved the queen at the fairy kingdom. He saw strange things at different kingdom.
GeronimoStilton looks like a adventurer with a frog always with him , visiting and passing through kingdom by kingdom.

Yeah my little brother was half asleep while we were working on his project. I ended up telling him to go to sleep and I basically did the project. I hope his teacher doesn't notice my attempt to sound like a 5th grader.

2/10
Assolutamente ridicolo, e premetto che l'ho letto alle medie assieme a mia sorella che frequentava le elementari: ci siamo sganasciate dal ridere tutte e due per la pochezza di questo libro. Il due è esclusivamente per le illustrazioni graziose e le discrete schede informative a fine libro. Andrebbe chiarito una volta per tutte che libro per bambini non vuol dire libro idiota, raffazzonato e senza un grammo di originalità - tutte cose che questo libro è: il protagonista è patetico e irritante, le vicende sono artefatte e più che prevedibili, lo svolgimento è tirato via al massimo, le battute sono di una tristezza rara, i personaggi sono macchiette, non c'è UNA singola cosa che non sia scopiazzata o riciclata o già sentita. Il che, in un "fantasy", fa pensare. C'è più suggestione in un sempreverde libro di fiabe, per non citare Ende, Rowling, Lewis, Verne, Barker e così via. Un libro che sa *davvero* far volare con la fantasia, inoltre, non ha bisogno di una figura ogni due facciate e di una parola ogni cinque scritta in caratteri speciali per meravigliare: il ricorso a simili mezzi, degni di un libro illustrato dell'asilo, è indice di quanto potenti siano scrittura, personaggi e storia (zero). Una storia semplice, ovvero per bambini, non è necessariamente una storia scontata, ma questo Geronimo Stilton non pare averlo afferrato. Vogliamo capire che i bambini NON hanno bisogno di essere trattati come imbecilli?

One day I was bored so I took this book from my little sister. I was surprised because it actually wasn't a bad book. That's just it though. The plot and stuff wasn't bad at all (but I've seen it before) and I thought the maps were cool, but the colored words were very distracting. Sometimes they were even hard to read. It is not even one of the best Geronimo Stilton books I've forced myself to read. Althought it is quite creative.
I'd recommend it to anyone who really really REALLY likes pictures and fancy font. But it's mostly a kids book so I guess I shouldn't be one to judge much.

Tra i libri per ragazzi, questo è senza dubbio tra i migliori per scrittura, creatività, originalità. La grafica colorata delle parole, le illustrazioni che accompagnano la scrittura, come in una poesia vi si trovano metafore, rime, musicalità.
Educativo, da leggere in compagnia!

No podría haber leído un mejor libro de pequeño, el formato del libro simplemente es una salvajada de creativo, los pequeños puzzles, los dibujos explicativos, los cambios a la fuente de letra, el manual de monstruos, LOS OLORES... En cuanto a diseño es un 10 rotundo (alguna página se me va a despegar ayuda) y no se qué tipo de concentrado llevan los olores que aún duran lol, tengo este libro desde hace como 15 años.
La trama es fácil y no le hace falta más pero el worldbuilding honestamente no lo recordaba tan bueno, la de cantidad de detalles tontos que hay y lo divertido que es todo (la villana es una manic pixie girl que realmente nunca hizo nada mal yo lo sé)
Gerónimo protagoniza un isekai donde empieza acobardado y acaba.... igualmente acobardado, pero ahora sabe enfrentarse a sus miedos como un verdadero Caballero Sin Mancha y Sin Miedo.
Menos mal que nuestro cronista Scribacchius Scribacchinus (así es el brainrot italiano le teme a este libro) pudo transcribir tremendas aventuras para poder leerme este libro.
En resumen, este libro es literalmente una oda a la fantasía, a la imaginación a los sueños y las ideas locas. No importa que exista o que no, lo importante es cuánto estamos dispuestos a creer en ello, en las cosas que hacemos porque nadie las ha hecho, en aquellos lugares a los que vamos porque nadie ha ido, decir aquellas cosas que nadie ha dicho, creer en nosotros mismos y las historias que solamente nosotros podemos contar: las nuestras.
Todo es Fantasía y solamente hay que darse a uno mismo la oportunidad de soñar.
"Todos los sueños que vienen del corazón tienen alas" (las alas de la fantasía XD).
Literalmente mi yo de 8 años estaba basado a niveles inimaginables y todos los ideales que se plasman en este libro permean en mi persona hasta hoy día. No fue la única razón por la que empecé a leer más fantasía pero definitivamente ayudó y releerlo ahora y reconocer que sigue estando guapísimo reconforta a mí yo niño mucho, lo cual es algo que creo que no hacemos a menudo y me ha sentado como un baño calentito. Gente no sean duros con sus yo-pequeños, a veces inconscientemente nos conocíamos más a nosotros mismos entonces y ahora cuesta redescubrir nuestras pasiones más puras (para mí la fantasía así simple pero increíble).
Tremendo texto os estoy echando maemia, bueno si alguien ha llegado hasta aquí un besico muy grande y soñad despiertos un poco más <3

Op een regenachtige dag valt in het huis van Geronimo Stilton de stroom uit. Maar als Geronimo op zolder naar kaarsen gaat zoeken, vindt hij iets totaal anders: een muziekdoosje! Het muziekdoosje leidt hem naar het mysterieuze land Fantasia, waar Geronimo zich als een echte ridder moet gedragen. Het is zijn taak om de koningin van de feeën te bevrijden. Maar de reis naar Florissant, het rijk van de feeën, is niet zonder gevaar. Om in Florissant te komen, moet Geronimo eerst door zes andere rijken reizen. En daar komt hij wel heel bijzondere wezens tegen! Enge heksen, verliefde zeemeerminnen en eenzame spinnen… Zal het Geronimo lukken de koningin van Florissant te redden?
Vrolijk en fantasievol
Het Fantasia-luisterboek is eigenlijk hetzelfde verhaal als het boek Fantasia, maar dan verteld door de Vlaamse Warre Borgmans. Warre weet het verhaal erg leuk en vrolijk te vertellen, met veel leuke stemmetjes, zodat het niet moeilijk is om de personages uit elkaar te houden. Je zou bijna denken dat het allemaal verschillende mensen zijn die praten, maar het is toch echt maar één persoon. Ze komen allemaal voor je ogen tot leven. Ook de andere geluiden in het Fantasia-luisterboek voegen veel toe. Je hoort de draken brullen, de weerwolven huilen en de inwoners van Fantasia dansen op vrolijke muziek. Het verhaal zit vol fantasie en dat blijkt ook uit de vele dingen die je hoort. Daarnaast worden er ook nog liedjes gezongen door Geronimo en zijn vrolijke vrienden, wat hetFantasia-luisterboek alleen maar nog leuker en fantasievoller maakt. Een klein minpuntje is wel dat er heel wat lastige woorden worden gebruikt. Hierdoor zijn sommige stukjes van het verhaal wat moeilijker om te begrijpen.

Today, I read a book called The Kingdom of Fantasy, by Geronimo Stilton. It is about a mouse who finds a music box, a weird one and enters a weird door. He found this weird letter in a weird language. He meets this frog that helps him. The Queen of Fairies, Blossom, is in danger, so Geronimo Stilton, the Knight, goes traveling to save Queen Blossom.
I had predicted there would be an fairy tale creature, or something like that in the story for the characters. Like a talking frog, a dragon.... and more. In the story I thought why did he wanted to go up the stairs? The golden stair is where he enters the fantasy world. Why does he want to? I mean, it might be dangerous, or someone might kidnap you! If I were Geronimo, I would rather run off and go tell my mom or dad.
In this story, I learned that you need to challenge yourself, you don't give things up, like Geronimo. He didn't want to cross the lava bridge. He didn't want to be staying with the mermaid queen. But he was on target of something, The Queen Blossom. He didn't give up. He went bravely through the scary fantasy world and survived. So this story is about not giving up.
My Rating: 5 out of 5

I know this book is easy for me, but I liked this book a lot. Geronimo Stilton is a great symbol of friendship. He always keeps his promises. One example was when Scribblehopper the frog showed Geronimo the secret entrance into Cackle the Witch's castle. The only ones that knew about the secret passage was Scribblehopper,and his grandfather, so he asked Geronimo to swear that he wouldn't tell anyone about it, and he did. He wouldn't even tell us,the reader. He is such a good influence.
So throughout the book, everybody thought Geronimo was a knight from a place called Stilton. He traveled from kingdom to kingdom in the Kingdom of Fantasy with a frog named Scribblehopper to save the Queen of the Fairies. Along the way, he made new friends and as a result, the Order of The Fairy Queen was made. This was a group of different "people," including Geronimo, that tried to help the Fairy Queen. The "people" that made up the Order of the Fairy Queen is Geronimo Stilton, Scribblehopper, Shelly, Princess Scatterbrain, Trick, Factual, Cozy, Giant and Blinkette.

The first book in the Kingdom of Fantasy book series. Geronimo Stilton is whisked away to Kingdom of Fantasy to help save Queen Blossom. Geronimo meets many along the way who help him through the seven kingdoms he has to go through in order to reach the Fairy Kingdom in order to save the queen. He battles and over comes tricks to get through each kingdom to reach the queen. Each kingdom is different resulting in different challenges and tasks he must overcome with the help of his friends, those of The Order of the Fairy Queen.
What a wonderful childrens/junior book. Keeps the reader involved in the story through riddles and tasks that the reader must perform in order to help Geronimo through the kingdoms. The worlds are so very interesting as are the characters that inhabit each of the worlds. I love how certain worlds are changed to a different font or color to bring emphasis to the word, very intriguing and great for children. The drawers are so wonderfully displayed, I enjoy viewing each little point of them as there always seems to be something hidden inside!
What a wonderful childrens/junior book. Keeps the reader involved in the story through riddles and tasks that the reader must perform in order to help Geronimo through the kingdoms.

I read this book at the request of my daughter for her "book club". I like the Geronimo Stilton series as a whole. This book was cute becausse the intrepid mouse ventured through a land involving almost every mythical creature. It is a cute book for beginning readers. Very enjoyable for a quick read.
