While growing up, I watched a lot of cartoons. I felt like I was watching one of those very interesting cartoons as I read Serendipity Mystery: Diary of a Snoopy Cat by R.F. Kristi. This book is number seven in the Inca Book Series. I must say that this book will make a very good cartoon. The author should probably look into that.

Inca went on vacation with her mom and her siblings, Fromage, Charlotte and Cara. They were always on the move because of the kind of job mom does, she works with UNESCO. For this holiday, they were going to have the fun of their lives at a Sri Lankan Island.

The holiday was going on smoothly until a precious ancient sword and some gold gets missing at the museum. Detective Solo and his dog, Terrance, have been invited to help recover the missing items. Inca believes this mission is right up her alley. She has done things like this before which is why she was called Inca, the Siberian Detective Cat. She sets out to find and return the items. Was this mission something she can do alone?

The author has an interesting writing style. She was able to weave the characteristics of these animals into the story. For example, she described the strength of the Leopard and the ability of the cat to hear sounds.

I always look out for what to learn whenever I read children's books because I believe books are a way of teaching certain truths. The author didn’t disappoint me in that regard. The book taught children to have the mindset that they are problem solvers. Children will also learn to look out for dangers in their environment and report strange incidents to adults.

There was nothing I disliked about it. Children would enjoy looking at the beautiful and detailed illustrations that make the book engaging. I found a few typographical errors and no grammatical errors. The book was also professionally edited.

I would rate Serendipity Mystery: Diary of a Snoopy Cat four out of four stars due to the reasons I mentioned above. There were no profanities or sexual scenes. So, I recommend this book to children from age four and above and young adults who enjoy cartoons.

This book is a good occasion for children to have fun and learn important lessons at the same time. I have no children, but I can recommend it to acquaintances who have children. Thank you for your terrific review!

I have read reviews of other Inca mystery books before, but this is the first I have read of this one. It sounds like the author is continuing the series with a great adventure! Nice review!

Oh my goodness, there's a character named Fromage? I love it. This sounds like an awesome children's story and I think my kids would love it. Good review!

Im currently reading this book. This book is for kids and it’s so interesting. This book tells us little about Sir Lanka. The country is in the middle of India and Southeast Asia. I also like the head of the detective agency, Inca. The review is enjoyable .

I used to love cartoons as a child as well. Even as an adult, it's nice to read something a little more simple every now and again. It sounds like this would fit the bill. Thanks!
