Cat Detectives in the Korean Peninsula by R.F. Kristi is an enjoyable book that follows the adventures of Inca, an intelligent Siberian cat who eavesdrops and hears that her human owner, Missy, will be going to South Korea as a guest judge in a famous competition. However, when they arrive in South Korea, they find out that their tour companion, Mr. Ye-Jun, is depressed because he can't see his sister. Inca merges with a dog, a puppy, a hamster, and a group of feline detectives, who together form a detective company as they must reunite both Mr. Ye-Jun and his sister and also solve the various mysteries with which they're faced.
 
One of the things that makes this book so charming is the cast of characters. Inca and her team of cats and dogs are all unique and entertaining in their own way, and their interactions with each other are often humorous and endearing. The author did an excellent job of giving each animal its own distinct personality, which makes it easy for readers to become attached to them.
 
After reading the book, I have to say that I was thoroughly impressed. The writing is engaging, the characters are well-developed, and the plot is both interesting and thought-provoking. The plot of the book is also well-crafted. It keeps the reader guessing until the end. The mystery is intriguing, and the clues are well-placed throughout the story. There are also plenty of action scenes that will keep young readers engaged. Sadly, I found some errors, which broke my heart. Besides that, I couldn't find anything else to dislike about the book.
 
The setting of the book, South Korea, is also fascinating. The author has clearly done her research and provides many interesting details about the country and its culture. This adds an educational element to the book, which parents and teachers will appreciate. I must commend the editing of the book, as it looks perfect. I would have given it a perfect rating, but for the errors the book contains, I rate it 4 out of 5 stars.
 
Overall, Cat Detectives in the Korean Peninsula is a wonderful book that is sure to delight both young and old readers. It is a great choice for anyone who loves cats, mysteries, or adventure stories. Highly recommended!

It's a sad thing you deducted a star. I gave it a perfect rating when I read it. Inca is a really interesting character to follow. Thanks for your wonderfully written review.

I am a fan of Children's books and I think I would read this too. I like the cover page and the idea of cats standing up for each other.
