Review of Cat Detectives in the Korean Peninsula
[Following is a volunteer review of "Cat Detectives in the Korean Peninsula" by R.F. Kristi.]
Cat Detectives in the Korean Peninsula by R.F. Kristi is the eighth book in the Diary of a Snoopy Cat – The Inca Cat Detective Series. The book begins with a brief description of Inca’s family tree, and her Detective Company, so those who have not read the previous books can understand a little more about each character.
After solving a mystery in Sri Lanka, Inca, Fromage, Cara and some of the other members of Inca's Detective Company return to London, where Missy (their human Mom), receives an invitation from Le Cordon Blue to act as a judge in an international cooking competition. This competition is also the perfect time for Missy to present her new cheese, “La Crème de la Crème”, or as Fromage calls it, the best cheese in the world. This event is the first of its kind and intends to promote friendly competition between North and South Korea. After arriving, the gang meets Ye-Jun a Korean translator that will be working with Missy during the competition. He invites them to stay with him and Baram, a lovely Korean Jindo, at his house. As polite and friendly as he is, Ye-Jun is also a sad person because his sister Ji is in the North and they cannot see each other or her cat Bo-Mi. Both Ye-Jun and Baram wish they could all be together again. What surprises will Inca and her family find in Korea? Will she solve another mystery?
The book is filled with adorable illustrations that perfectly complement the story. R. F. Kristi loves animals, and its shows when reading the series. Inca is a sassy, confident cat that is not afraid of new adventures and mysteries.
This is the second book of the series I read, and I must admit that I love the growth Inca and the rest of the company show. Teamwork is perfectly portrayed and is important, there is no more Inca the powerful cat, now she has a team she can rely on and count on.
I cannot say a single negative thing about this book. I honestly love Inca and I wish I had a child I could share it with.
Overall, I rate this book 4 out of 4 stars. The book is professionally edited, as I did not find errors. It contains vivid descriptions that are perfectly complemented by the illustrations. Each character has a unique personality and learns something throughout the book.
I recommend this book to children aged seven and up, and their parents. This book will help them understand the importance of teamwork and friendship. The language is adequate for this age group, as it is not hard to understand it. I also believe their parents will enjoy it, and reading the book together will be a lovely activity. I honestly recommend this book to any reader who appreciates lovely and meaningful stories, regardless of their age.
