Reading series Geronimo Stilton

I have been in my classroom for a month now. This year I am looping with my first graders to second grade. My students are very excited because we are starting our reading series.
I have different reading levels in my classroom. This series is for 3rd-4th grade but my second graders love it!
It is the story of a detective mouse named GerĂ³nimo Stilton. It has many different books and lots of online resources. This books have been so successful tat they have even created a feminine character for another series: Tea Stilton. My girls love her.
What I do in my classroom is that I read aloud the first book of the series and when we go to the school library lots of my kiddos take the rest of the books for reading at home. Sometimes, when there are multiple copies we read them in our reading teams during small group reading. They love that. Hopefully I will be able to buy some more books with multiple copies for my classroom library.
I have included some links to their online resources. 

Some of these resources/games are only in Spanish but you can find some of the books in English too.
AVAILABLE IN DIFFERENT LANGUAGES!

I have joined two great giveaways from two great bloggers:

Favorite (Spanish) Read-Alouds Linky Party

I read this post from Run Miss Nelson’s got the camera and I needed to join.I will share my favorite Read-Alouds in Spanish.

You can find almost every book in this list in English too. But I just wanted to share them in Spanish.

I usually loop with my students (1st-2nd grade) so I have two different lists for favorite Read-Alouds for each grade.
In first grade I mainly read picture books that they will read later in the classroom library.
In second grade I love reading chapter books to my students. They still like picture books. But reading the first book on a character series helps me to ‘hook’ them on the series.

I know it is difficult finding this books in Spanish at cheap prices. So I wanted to share this wonderful site. It is like amazon but it is a bit cheaper and FREE delivery WORLWIDE:
