6. My favorite part of the book
My favorite part of the book is when they told the secret of cracklefur castle. The secret is that the cracklefur’s love one another and that they could do anything with love. I was very surprised when I heard that because all the cracklefur’s are very creepy and scary. I then understood why they said that. In the book, Creepella was very nice to everyone in the house. Even the butler. Everyone got treated with love. That is when I understood why they said that. That is why that part was my favorite part.

7. Book review and star
This book is the best I have ever read. I thing all young mice should read it. What surprised us the most was the way Geronimo stilton expressed the special words. He writes them in a special font. For example, he would write love with red, swirly letters. That is what we thought about the book.
our rating for the book would be 4/5 stars.
