Dognapped by Karen King
Reviewed by Heena Pala
Dognapped is a fantastic book written in the point of view of Amy Carter who goes to visit her grandma in her bed and breakfast in Cornwall. Amy's Gran owns a Bichon Frise dog, Fluffy. When Fluffy goes missing under Amy's care, Amy is determined to use her detective skills to find her.
I don't think the author is trying to put any point across in writing this book; it's just a fun, light-hearted story to read. As it is being narrated, it is written in an informal style. I think a suitable audience would be younger readers due to the fact that it contains easy language.
I think Karen King has done an excellent job with this book; it is very hard for me to make any criticism!
If I was writing this book, I would have made it a little longer with more description of characters and the setting. The reason I have given it a nine out of ten is because it is a bit out of my age range. If I was a younger reader, I would have definitely given it ten.
