Geronimo and the Gold Medal Mystery is a cute book in a series of about a mouse, Geronimo Stilton, and his adventures being a publisher of The Rodent's Gazette in New Mouse City. This is book #33 in a series of 51 books. This book does not technically have an author because the original creator, Elisabetta Dami, created the pseudonym Geronimo Stilton to publish the books. This series was published by Scholastic starting in 2004.
In this book Geronimo is begged by his sister to cover the upcoming Olympic games in Athens, which he is not thrilled about. While on the plane to Athens Geronimo runs into an old friend trying to solve an Olympic mystery. Geronimo's friend convinces him to help and they are off. Do they solve the mystery? you will have to read and find out.
The book has great illustrations and has some words in the text illustrated as well. The best part of the book is the historical facts on the modern Olympics and some important athletes that have competed over the years. I think that this book would be a fun story to read to students when learning about historical facts on the Olympics.
