Cat Detectives in the Korean Peninsula is a story written by R.F. Kristi. Inca and Company are introduced to us. Inca is a Siberian cat, and the company includes three other cats, a hamster, and two dogs. They formed a detective agency, led by Inca, and worked together to solve some mysteries. The detective team travels to South Korea with their human mom, Missy. She was chosen to be one of the judges in a French patisserie competition, and she planned to use the opportunity to debut her newly created cheese. When they arrived in South Korea, they met Ye-Jung, a tour guide who invited them to his home. They discover that Ye-Jung adores his sister, who lives in North Korea. Our detective team will never turn down a mission. Will they be able to reunite the siblings?

I have always admired the simplicity of children's books, and this one was no exception. The fact that this is the eighth book in the series does not affect the plot. It was fascinating to follow the team's journey and their conversations. I also like how there is no fantasy about humans and animals talking to each other. It is easier to explain to curious children that animals understand each other than it is to tell them that animals and humans only talk to each other in books. It is also fascinating how the concept of the demilitarized zone between South and North Korea can be expressed so simply in a children's book. Colorful illustrations were also included in this book, which added to the enjoyment.

There was nothing I did not like about this book. It was simple, enjoyable, and colorful, just like a children's book should be. It was also flawlessly edited, as I found no mistakes.

This book gets five out of five stars from me. It is one of those books that every child should read. It is beautifully illustrated, instructive, adventurous, and humorous.

This book is recommended for children who can read and adults who enjoy children's books. I also recommend it to parents and teachers who do not mind reading to their children, who may struggle with the vocabulary.
