Who is Geronimo Stilton? That's me! I run a newspaper but my true passion is writing tales of adventure. Here is New Mouse City, the capital of Mouse Island, My books are all bestsellers!! My stories are full of fun tastier than Swiss cheese and tangier than extra-sharp cheddar. They are whisker-licking good stories and that's a promise! My grandfather William Short paws also known as Cheap Mouse Willy was back at The Rodent's Gazette and he was determined to torture me. He wanted to publish a guide book to Ratzikistan, the Siberia of Mouse Island and he ordered me to go there to write it! But as you know, dear reader, I Hate Traveling!
