MOUSE HUNT IS ON

Authorities Uncover Every Hole in Search of Geronimo Stilton
By Tina Spicytail

NEW MOUSE CITY—There was an angry mob gathered outside the offices of The Rodent’s Gazette yesterday morning. They were yelling. They were screaming. They were throwing moldy cheese balls. And they were chanting, “Stil-ton! Stil-ton! We Want Stil-ton!”

As you probably know by now (unless you live under a rock-hard piece of parmesan…or never come out of your hole…or NEVER pick up the telephone), there’s been a little mix-up with the New Mouse City Yellow Pages, recently published by our beloved editor, Geronimo Stilton.

EVERY NUMBER IS WRONG.

Yes, it’s a disaster. Yes, New Mouse City is turned on its tail. And yes, Geronimo Stilton is ultimately responsible.

But is this a reason to threaten Mr. Stilton with his life? A reason for the mayor to put him on the Most Wanted List, like a dangerous criminal? No! Geronimo Stilton will fix this mess. He will correct and republish the Yellow Pages. We know he will, for he is an honorable mouse among mice.

At this moment, however, we are not certain where he is. Police have been searching high and low, but don’t have any leads. An anonymous caller told The Rodent’s Gazette early this morning that they had spotted Mr. Stilton, his cousin Trap, his sister Thea, and nephew Benjamin floating west in a hot air balloon.

We can only hope that the Stilton family wasn’t driven from Mouse Island by the wrath of our loyal readers, and that they will come back soon.

Wherever Geronimo Stilton went, we know that he will return a HERO!
