The first problem was that Geronimo Stilton did not know how to drive. He needed to learn to how drive, renew his driver's license, and drive at the good and safely at the ceremony. This ceremony was so important because if gernoimo didn't do it well the mayor would give the publishing driving safely booklet job to another company. But the other company is his enemy, sally ratmousen and they would get the money not his geronimo's family's company.

The second problem was that Carlotta was trying to steal solar. This was a problem because solar was trying to help but lunar was trying to steal solar. If they get solar, they will know how to do invisibility, then she will steal from all the banks and no one will be able to see her, then no one will be able to stop her and she will keep committing crimes- since no one can see invisible stuff.

The third problem was that Carlotta stole the diamond necklace, that wasn't hers and it was important.

2. How did they solve the problem(s)?

The first problem was solved by, Geronimo going to driving lessons with Rusty Carr. He helped him learn how to drive safely and well in time for the ceremony. Rusty helped him be a good driver and pass the test to get a renewed driver's license.

The second problem wasn't solved because they couldn't catch Carlotta and she threw the diamond necklace in the water, to distract them, and then she ran away and escaped. She couldn't stop her from committing crimes. They tried to solve the problem by Rusty talking to her, but it didn't work.

The third problem was solved by having a car duel, solar and lunar, but solar won. After solar won, carlotta threw it in the water and ran away, while solar went to save it. Geronimo showed the recovered diamond necklace when he was in the ceremony when he was on the stage.

3. What was a lesson of the story that you learned?

A lesson that I've learned is that you have to pay attention to what you're doing to drive safely on the road. It is important to do the right thing and not let your ambitions make you do bad things. Don't let your ambitions be corrupted and become evil.

4. If you could change or add one thing about the story, what would it be? Why?

I would add more to the sorry about how they got the diamond necklace back and caught carlotta. I would make carlotta become a good person to not steal anymore.

A= Will Mystery is helping the Thea Sisters, Thea Sisters are looking for Thea, Thea is looking for Nina, and Nina is investigating to see how the King of Erin is controlling the weather. She was investigating this because Ireland had bad wings, strange storms, and earthquakes. Nina is trapped in the Land of Erin because she lit up the fire, the words on the floor warned her not to go alone because if the fire stopped, she will be stuck inside and the door will close.

2. What was the problem? and Why?

They need to find green fairies, to find the missing page of the diary, so they can read who was the intruder, so they can give the stuff back so the king won't be angry and there won't be a crack in the land of Erin. They need to solve this because the king of erin is angry, ireland has bad weather and the people are in danger.

3. How are/did they solve the problem(s)?

They are going to find the green fairies ^^

4. What do you think will happen next and why?

i think they will find the green fairies, then they will accidentally take the book and run away. I think this because when i first read the book, it said that the green fairies they sometimes get mixed up and i think that they will chase after them, get it back, and then they head to the intruder, take the thing that was stolen and give it to the king, so that the weather will become better and the people won't be in danger.

ANSWERS

1. The character in Alyssa is Alyssa the characters in sister problem is Maria ,Olivia, and Anna.

2. Alyssa and Maria are same because they get in to a conflict they are also different because one is in the conflict one is helping the conflict.

3. The conflict in sister problems is that the two sisters are fighting because one took the other one’s clothes and the other one is throwing clothes.

4. Maria told them to talk it out. This helps them to solve the problem because it helps them to explain what they want to communicate. For example, if olivia didn't know anna took her shirt and didn't even communicate it to her and instead of her asking she took her clothes and started throwing it at her. Without communicating she may say mean words maybe. Communicating will help them because maybe they didn't know they wanted to borrow it for picture day. communicating and talking. Talking it out can help them know what each other is feeling, and why, and maybe do something better like talking nicely.

5. In stead of fighting they can talk it out or communicate.

The problem was that someone was stealing the lotus flowers. It was important because all creatures use the lotus flower to survive Minwa.

Some creatures used the lotus flowers to fly, to live on land, for perfume, as sunscreen, and as food to live.

2. how did they solve the problem?

They solved the problem by asking creatures in minwa if they know who stole the lotus flower and they kept saying it someone else. Then they ended up finding the answer that the catfish did it. The catfish did it because if he doesn't eat the lotus flowers he will die. He needs to eat the lotus flowers because his stone was taken from him. to stop him from eating the lotus flowers they had to get the stone back. They got the stone back by going to find the creature that the lotus flowers are disappearing, all the creatures are dying without the lotus flower, the catfish will die without the stone. If the catfish eats the lotus flowers he won't die and that's why to stop the lotus flowers from dying they need the stone back.

3. did you like the story? why or why not?

i liked the story because i liked mystery stories. the second reason is because I like the tanuki. another reason i liked the story is because some of the creatures are very funny, very nice, and very mean.

4. what was your favorite part of the story?

my favorite part of the story was when the tanuki turned into a bunny at the beginning of the story. That was my favorite part because it was very funny of the tanuki raccoon turning into a bunny.

5. would you recommend this story? why or why not?

i would recommend this story to a friend because it is a very interesting story. Because it adds lots of details and it is a very funs story to read.

6. what are some of the lesson you learned in this story?

some of the lessons in the story are when someone is being cruel to you, don't be cruel back to them. I learned this from the story of the octopus when he was nice but then some people were being cruel to him and thought he would be cruel to them. So he thought if they will be cruel to me then I will be cruel to them. He learned the lesson that if he is cruel hearted to other people and if he is lonely then he will never get friends. Another lesson that i learned was don't be selfish to others because if you want to be selfish then they won't want to be your friend. If you freeze people to death, they won't want to be your friend even if you are lonely. You should make friends by being nice to them and ask they nicely instead of freezing them to death.

7. if you could change one part of the story, what would you change?

if i could change part of the story, i would change the catfish into as tiny as a ant so he can't eat hundreds of lotus flowers. so he wouldn't eat hundreds but only one a day. i would give the person who stole the gem from the catfish a fake gem. i would change this because i don't want the cat fish to eat all of the lotus flowers.

1. What was the problem? and Why? The problem was that uncle sting snout was passing away. It was a problem because geronimo does not want uncle stingysnout to die. Another problem was that geronimo's uncle was making him do all the castle work because he was passing away and it was his "last request". This is a problem because he said it was only 7 tiny requests but every time he added something more and it was 7 large things he needed geronimo to do. It made geronimo so tired that he could fall asleep in a car.

2. How did they solve the problem(s)?

Uncle stingysnout solved his problem by telling geronimo to assist him by helping him clean the whole castle, fixing his stuff, and helping him find stuff for his "last requests" before he passed away.

Geronimo solved his problem by just finishing the 7 requests and he thought he could just go home. Geronimo didn't turn down the requests of his uncle because he couldn't say no to his uncle who was very poor and someone who was going to die.

3. What do you think will happen next and why?

I think that geronimo stilton is going to do all of his tasks and then his uncle will start laughing at him. His uncle saying that he was just tricking him this whole time because he didn't want to spend his money hiring someone to help him clean so he tricked his nephew. I think this will happen next because geronimo's uncle stingysnout was smiling in a suspicous way and when geronimo found a paper in a secret drawer that could be his uncle's will, his uncle said no and then asked him to dust the whole castle. when geronimo finished dusting the entire castle, his uncle stingysnout said oh i found the will. Uncle stingysnout didn't just ask geronimo to do only one thing but asked him to do a lot of things. He asked geronimo to do these requests by talking about how he was going to die and made him feel guilty.

Shackleton was a hero because he risk his own life to help 27 men get to the safe island to live and he was courageous too.

No because the mountain it all  ready collapsed!

It will not stay the same forever because one day it will collapse from not being stable and there is wind, snow, and rain that will wear down the rocks. I know this because the Old man of the mountain rock is very old and for years and years in the story i read that it collapsed because of the wearing down from the wind, snow, and rain.

The problem was that Geronimo was having a competition and he didn't know how to make honey. It was a problem because there was another team that was using fake robot bees to make honey so they could win the honey. But as a result they lost because they used fake bees. Another problem at the end of the story was that Geronimo was chased by the robotic bees that the No family was making. It was a problem because if he kept getting chased he would never be able to do something. He wouldn't be able to do his work because he would be chased by the bees. The bees were chasing him because the No family was controlling the bees to chase him because Madame No said if he doesn't give her his bee farm she will make the bees keep chasing him.

2. How did they solve the problem?

The first problem was solved by Alpine and Melanie helping them to learn how to get honey from the bees and they gave Trap and Geronimo to help them make honey. The second problem was solved by sneaking up on the No family's factory and taking the remote control so the No family wouldn't be able to force control the bees to chase Geronimo. Then they made the robot bees catch the No family.

3. What lesson did Geronimo learn and what theme? Support with evidence.

The theme of the story is that you can't just give up on something you need to try and try something new. This is supported by how Geronimo was on vacation and he didn't know how to take care of a beehive. Geronimo was so scared of bees and his fur straight up. Geronimo didn't give up on learning how to take care of bees and get honey from them. Another lesson was that you can't listen to someone who is threatening you, you need to listen to yourself and have bravery / courage. This is supported by how Geronimo was in front of Madame No and she said that He had to sell her the bee hive farm. But instead he didn't just listen to her, Geronimo said no to madame no even if the robotic bees were going to chase him

Which makes the story similar since it talk about how in "Sticky situation" it talks about how why bee pollinators are important to make honey, the bees take pollen from manuka flowers to make manuka honey.
