Did someone say adventure? The cats have barely settled from their adventurous trip to Sri Lanka when they have to join Missy, their mom, and their human owner on another trip halfway around the world to faraway Korea. Missy has just been invited as a judge at one of the biggest cooking competitions between South and North Korean chefs. She has also been invited to share and present her latest cheese creation. She's stringing the cats along, and they're taking us with them on their latest adventure!

Cat Detectives in the Korean Peninsula is a children's book by R.F. Kristi. It is the 8th installment in the Inca Cat Detective Series. It can, however, be read as a standalone. The story features Inca, a Siberian cat who is the main protagonist and a super cat detective ever ready to unravel the next mystery. On this particular adventure, she is helped by Cara and Fromage, her fellow cats, a dog named Terrance, and Charlotte, a hamster. From recovering Missy's special cheese after it got missing to reuniting siblings across borders, the animals take us on another exciting escapade of theirs. There's no case too difficult to take on for the super detective and her team, and we get to read all about it in this story.

Despite this book being a children's book, the plot and storyline is enough to keep an adult intrigued and engaged. I had a fun time reading about the animals and their latest mission. The story is also easy to follow and is written to suit its target audience, mainly children. The language is simple, the book is full of beautiful and colorful illustrations, the text is written in a fun and quirky font, and the cover page is immediately eye-catching. There's also so much to learn from this book. The author explores the Korean culture, food, language, etc. She even delves into the topic of the Korean Demilitarized Zone (DMZ) and the divide between North and South Korea. This is, however, maintained at a minimal level. This book makes for an entertaining, thrilling, and educative read.

The only slight to this book was the presence of several characters. I found many of them unnecessary, and I believed the story would have progressed easily without some of the characters. This was not a major issue for me, but I find it might be for younger children who read this book unaided.

This book deserves a perfect rating of 4 out of 4 stars. I could go through an entire children's book without feeling bored or underwhelmed. I appreciate the story's plot, writing style, structure, and progression. I was also unable to spot any errors, which indicates that it was very well edited. I would conclude by stating that it meets all the standards of a wholesome children's book.

I recommend this book to children between the ages of 6 and 12. The book employs a writing style suitable for younger children and discusses topics that might interest older children. I would also recommend reading this to and with your little ones as an adult or parent.
