I am interested in looking for them because they had interactive features like an inbuilt dictionary, viewing character profiles, animated illustrations and music and other advanced features which may never be seen again.

This is one of the only two images depicting the eBooks (always the cover only) in the hands of a little girl's eBook Reader photographed for an Italian newspaper in 2001.

I hope the eBooks get found soon along with other pieces of lost media, eBook or not!
Well, has anyone contacted the copyright holder for Geronimo Stilton books? What have they got to say about this?

They didn't respond at all when some of our subreddit's team members did.

But then it's not certain the books are lost. The copyright holders may have copies. Or the author may have. Or the translator, if the books were translated. And why do you think the copyright has expired? The author is alive, according to Wikipedia.

There are lots of ebooks that are no longer sold. That doesn't necessarily mean they're lost or out of copyright. Just that they're no longer available for the general public.
