1* CashCowFranchise: A very popular book series in its native UsefulNotes/{{Italy}} that also sells well worldwide, with plenty of {{Spinoff}} series, a ComicBookAdaptation, an AnimatedAdaptation, two video games based off the ''Kingdom of Fantasy'', and two theater shows! Not to mention, an upcoming animated film!
2* CompletelyDifferentTitle: The Chinese translations of the books retitle the series as ''Mouse Reporter/Journalist''.
3* CrossDressingVoices: Benjamin in the AnimatedAdaptation.
4* DenialOfDigitalDistribution: Some series, such as the ''Heromice'' and ''Classic Tales'' series (with the exception of ''Literature/AChristmasCarol'') and the anniversary editions, don't have digital releases, at least in English.
5* LateExportForYou: The books tend to be published in English later than their original Italian publications. For instance, the first book, ''Lost Treasure of the Emerald Eye'', was released in English seven years after the original release. The main series has since caught up to the point there's a two-year gap, besides the entries that [[SequelFirst had their order in the English series reorganized]]. The ''Classic Tales'' series has it especially rough; the adaptation of ''Literature/TwentyThousandLeaguesUnderTheSea'' took a whopping '''''eleven years''''' to be published in English.
6* NoExportForYou:
7** There are several books that have not been published in English, among them being the multiple [[HumanFocusedAdaptation Human-Focused]] SpinOff series of the ''Kingdom of Fantasy'' series.
8** As of 2014, the animated series is still MIA in the United States (except for certain cable systems that carry it on demand). Fortunately, it's easy to find the region-free Canadian [=DVDs=] online. [[BadExportForYou But those are NTSC (480 pixels of vertical resolution) and interlaced (although 30>>24 detelecine filter in most video players can fix that).]]
9*** And as of 2017, it's now in hi-def on [[Creator/PrimeVideo Amazon Prime]].
10*** One of the seasons was on Creator/{{Netflix}}, but it was removed.
