[Following is a volunteer review of "Serendipity Mystery: Diary of a Snoopy Cat" by R.F. Kristi.]
Meeting the Inca family again was a lovely experience. This book, Serendipity Mystery: Diary of a Snoopy Cat by R.F. Kristi, is the seventh in The Inca Book Series. Like the other books in the series, this one details the experiences and escapades of the cat detectives.
Inca's human mum takes them on a well-deserved holiday to a tiny Island in Sri Lanka. They anticipate a calm, relaxed, and joyful time on vacation. However, while they experience all these extraordinary times, they get to have some detective work to do. Before visiting a museum in Colombo, they discover that a precious and expensive cultural sword is missing. This is the kind of stuff Inca's company investigates. They could not resist the urge to swing into action. They work round the clock to unearth the mischief and corruption that led to the loss of this sword. They make some friends and enemies in that quest. Do they manage to recover that sword? Find out by reading the book.
I'd say this book is simply lovely. The pomp and color were appealing right from the cover page, while the story was suspenseful and exciting from start to finish. In addition, the plot was almost perfect, and the characters were likable and entirely relatable. The author built them up perfectly. I have to admit it is one of the best children's books I've ever read. The story is also mind-opening. It encourages children to think and be innovative. The meticulous operations of Inca's company can be inspiring and a call to action for young readers.
The author's choice of words was also commendable. He made them simple enough for the target readers to understand while also throwing in some vocabulary for them to learn. She also made the stories exciting by making them personal. Telling the stories from a first-person perspective made them unique, relatable, and enjoyable for kids. The illustrations were also perfect for the stories. There was absolutely nothing I disliked in the book.
I, therefore, give the book a perfect rating of four out of four stars. The writing is beautiful and exceptionally well-edited. I recommend it for kids between the ages of 6 and 13. I'm confident they'll enjoy reading it. There are a couple of lessons they could pick from it too.
