Cat Detectives in the Korean Peninsula is the eighth book in the series, Diary of a Snoopy Cat. Despite the book being the eighth in the series, it can be read as a stand-alone. This children’s book follows Inca the Siberian kitty, and her pet family along with their humanoid owner, Missy, as they all take a trip to South Korea, where Missy has been invited to be a judge in one of the famous French competitions. Whilst still enjoying the feeling of being away from home, they come across a situation that forces them to put on their detective’s gloves and work.

Firstly, I must comment on how well-structured this story is. Despite it being a children’s book, as an adult I enjoyed it so much that I finished it within an hour of reading it. The few shades of political tension mentioned in the book are of an acceptable volume as it isn’t overburdening the reader with politics considering the audience.
The loyalty theme mentioned is interesting. The pets are very loyal to each other and to their owner, Missy. I also love how the friendship theme is presented.

The brief introduction of the detective agency members at the beginning of the book plays an important role in clearing the confusion one might face during the course of their reading. The action and suspense is enough to keep the reader entertained up until the last page.

There is nothing to dislike about R.F. Kristi’s book. Everything is perfect, from the writing style, the storyline, to the themes found in the book. I give Cat Detective in the Korean Peninsula by R.F. Kristi a handsome four out of four stars rating. I believe her editorial team did an excellent job on this masterpiece, because I found zero errors in it.

The recommended audience for this book would be children older than seven years, and those few adults who enjoy reading about these sweet and cute beings, cats.

I like that I can read the book as a standalone. And the theme and the plot are stories that children would like. Your review is interesting.
You are yet to be the best version of yourself. Keep refining.

Thanks for giving me a good excuse to enjoy a children's book! Thanks also for a great review Zwelihle_Myeni. I enjoyed reading about the details of the book and it's interesting to know there is some political content.

Nice review! I like this theme as well. It sets a great example of family loyalty and acceptance of the part each plays as a group member.

At this point, I know that I'm not mistaken when I say I'm in love with the Inca book series. I always look out for the Inca book series because there are several attributes or qualities often displayed by Inca and her furry friends which I can incorporate into my daily life. Thanks for the review.
