Review of Cat Detectives in the Korean Peninsula
Posted: 08 Apr 2022, 05:34
[Following is a volunteer review of "Cat Detectives in the Korean Peninsula" by R.F. Kristi.]
Ever since I could crack a book, I have been fascinated by detective work in films and books. I was, for instance, a huge Sherlock Holmes fan, even though it was way beyond my age. I, therefore, know how it feels like to love something and not understand it. For this reason, I highly regard R.F. Kristi for this beautiful book, Cat Detectives in the Korean Peninsula. It has simplified detective concepts for young children.
The book is the eighth installment of The Inca Cat Detective Series but can be read as a stand-alone. Inca's human mom gets the chance to judge a cooking contest in South Korea. She carries her family and some of Inca's friends, and this is where all the fun begins. The team has to work to find their mom's cheese that an old competitor had stolen right at the airport. They later discover that their host had been separated from his sister, now in North Korea. The team again works hard to find a solution to that. You should find out whether they overcome the disaccord between the two countries in this mission.
I truly enjoyed reading this book. It is written so perfectly that it can be read and enjoyed by adults despite being a children's book. The content is superb, and the author did an excellent job presenting it. I loved that Kristi made this book a stand-alone; he introduced Inca's family afresh for those new to the series. I also loved the illustrations in the book. They stamp its attribute as a colorful and eye-catching children's book right from the cover page. The images were perfect and accurate in their depiction of the story.
The author built the characters in the book splendidly. Inca, for instance, passes for a real cat with her attitude, passion, and beauty. Her character is dominant and quite likable. Her human mom also comes out as intelligent, passionate, and caring, a perfect representation of what cat owners should be. The language used in the book is simple and easily understandable. There is nothing negative I can point to in this book.
For this reason, I give it a rating of four out of four stars. It is well-written and exceptionally well-edited. It is relevant and appealing to children. It also covers interesting and exciting topics and themes. I'd recommend it to parents with kids between ages 4 and 10. It can be an excellent bedtime story for them.
