R.F. Kristi's Cat Detectives in the Korean Peninsula is a children's story written from the perspective of animals. It follows Inca, a detective cat, and her team of detectives. She is the leader of the detective agency Inca & Company. Inca, Fromage, Cara, and Monk are cats; Polo and Terrance are dogs; Charlotte is a hamster. They conduct their investigation in the home of a humanoid named Solo, who also happens to be Terrance's owner.

Their mother has been chosen as a judge in the French pâtisserie competition. The competition is organized by Le Cordon Bleu and takes place in South Korea. She also wants to take advantage of this fantastic opportunity to introduce her new cheese to the world. They all prepare for the journey to South Korea together. This family meets Enzo, mom's long-time adversary, on the plane. He has always attempted to discredit her company. Learn what Enzo did and how the detective agency handled the situation. What happened in South Korea? More information can be found by reading this.

The author did an excellent job of simply writing this story. The grammar is simple. It is written in lines rather than paragraphs which will aid the children's comprehension. The children will also be able to learn about new places and cultures. As in the case of South and North Korea, they will be aware that, despite speaking the same language, the two countries are not on good terms.

I adore Fromage's personality. He's exuberant and carefree. It was amusing how he kept claiming that the new cheese was his creation. It's a shame he couldn't see his tiger family as much as he wanted to. Similarly, I had no idea animals used passports. It sounded unfamiliar to me. Kristi also emphasized the lessons that children can learn from friendship, love, leadership, teamwork, family, and care in this book.

I have no objections to this story. While reading, I couldn't find any errors. The author did a good job of describing things so that readers could relate to them. This gets 4 out of 4 stars from me. It was expertly edited.

I would also recommend it to children. They'll adore it. The pictures in the book also fascinate and hold their attention.

I have read many reviews on many of the books in this series. Is Inca a boy or girl? I have seen both pronouns used in reference to this cat. Anyway, I really like the way that Inca is able to solve the mysteries and how teamwork is involved.

According to the editor that marked this review, he said Inca is a girl. The sex of the cat was not really talked about in the book. So it made it a little confusing. Thanks!

I've read this book and what I like most in it is the regal disposition and the positive vibes that emanate from Inca's disposition
