Geronimo Stilton Special Edition series.
Newspaper editor (and the series' purported author) Geronimo Stilton must track down an ancient artifact that has vanished from New Mouse City's Egyptian Mouseum. An abundance of visual elements (clue and fact sidebars, wild typeface changes, glitzy graphics, bright cartoon illustrations) and an action-packed pace characterize the formulaic but entertaining series. An appendix includes quizzes and jokes.
