Geronimo Stilton, adventuremouse? Not me! But surely a little skiing couldn't hurt a rodent, right? Wrong. Moldy mozzarella! When my ski trip landed me in the hospital, I was sure it was going to be the worst Christmas ever! But my family and friends had something else in mind. . . .

Afraid of the Hospital?
Geronimo Stilton hates to go to the hospital, but he realizes he has never been to one. This book helps kids to relate to going to the hospital and being afraid. Great action, full of fun to create crafts, stories and jokes. Our favorite book! A+++

Offers recipes, jokes, interesting hospital information, skiing rules and games
Geronimo cannot resist his nephew, Benjamin, when he pleads to be taken skiing. The moment Geronimo offers to treat, a pack of friends and relatives decides to go skiing with them. Before you can say "Swiss Cheese," Geronimo is paying huge bills for a nice lodge on Frozen Fur Peak, transportation and meals. Life goes downhill from there, starting with the news that Geronimo must bunk with his cousin, Trap.

At least he gets to go skiing. Geronimo loves this activity --- until the slope show-off knocks into him. The two roll downhill, gathering snow as they travel, before they smash into a boulder. Geronimo ends up in the hospital, where he finds out he has broken every single bone in his body and must have surgery. He is so sad. Geronimo will be in the hospital for a very long time. The accident is sure to ruin his holidays. But the story of how his spirits rise makes for an uplifting read.

In addition to a fun plot, CHRISTMAS CATASTROPHE offers recipes, jokes, interesting hospital information, skiing rules and games.
