Cat Detectives in the Korean Peninsula: Diary of a Snoopy Cat by R.F. Kristi is the eighth book of the Inca Cat Detective Series. It follows the adventures of Inca, a cat, and the members of her detective company, Inca & Company, with Mom in South Korea. Mom is invited to be one of the judges of the French patisserie competition. She plans to present her special cheese to the chefs who will be at the competition, and she is very excited at the opportunity and takes Inca and company along.

On the plane, they meet Enzo, another chef they feel is jealous of Mom because she stole his number one spot. When the plane arrives, however, Mom can't find her cheese bag, which contains the cheese she wants to present to the judges. Where is the cheese bag? Does Mom find it?

I wanted to write a practical review of this book and find a perfect audience, so I got it for my three-year-old cousin, who loved it. Being someone addicted to cartoons, he enjoyed the pictures in the book. This is my first positive aspect. This book would appeal to its intended audience because of the author's font choice and the constant use of pictures in the book. I must say he learned a lot from the book too. We, my cousin and I, learned a lot. I learned a lot about South Korea from reading the book, and my cousin understood what a family tree is and could name at least some family tree members from what was displayed. I'm glad I came across such a fantastic book.

I loved the use of onomatopoeia in the book. It will help readers get more engaged while reading, and I especially found it fascinating as an adult. The book also holds a lot of lessons to be learned. For example, from Enzo's episode with Mom, I learned the art of forgiveness. Being a diary, the dates of the events are recorded and sometimes even the time of day. This made the book more fascinating.

I felt that some of the mysteries were resolved rather very quickly; this may make it difficult actually to hold a reader glued to the book. They seemed to happen so fast. However, this could be because it is a children's book. Seeing that I found no error in the book and only found a negative aspect that did not affect how much I loved the book, I rate it four out of four stars. In addition, this book was exceptionally well edited.

I recommend this book to children between the ages of three to six. They will find it a very interesting read. However, older children and teenagers would like this book.

This seems like an interesting book from your review, but I have not read any of the book in the Inca series, so I don't know if it is okay to start from this one. Anyways, thank you for your review.

I know Inca and company will suspect Enzo, the chef. I would love to know how they found the cheese bag, or didn't they find it at all? Thank you for this well-written review.
