Book Description:
Hundreds of cats are
missing! Fear not-Penelope Ann Pickersgill and her hippie grandma are on the
case. While her friends go to cool camps, twelve-year-old Penelope has to spend
the summer with Grandma Bev, who is convinced that cat-eating aliens are
beaming the town's furry friends aboard their mother ship at night. Lights in
the sky point to UFO's, but Penelope is sure there's a more logical
explanation. With a little help from Sherlock Holmes, she and Grandma Bev set
out to find the cats. Will they be able to solve the mystery before all the cats
in Thornhill disappear?
My Take:
Before Reading this book, I
curled up in my bed with a nice cup of Bavarian Wild Berry Tea and before long
I was accompanied by a black super furry attention seeking feline.
It was a really great and
fun read. Super cute and with characters that were extremely well developed.
From start to finish I was interested and that tends to be tough when it comes
to middle grade fiction books... at least I find it difficult to stay focused
with characters that are so young. But I found Penelope to be a breath of fresh
air and not at all what you would expect of a 12 yr old. I can't say I found
any flaws with the execution or story line and I'm genuinely looking forward to
buying this book for my niece who loves all animals and anything
science related. I think its a great book for kids and even families to
share together. I only wish that the book was a tad bit longer but other than
that I felt like it was truly golden.
If this author is capable of
writing such a great middle grade book than I can only assume the rest of his
works will be just as good so I'll definitely be picking up some of his other
works!
