Disclosure: Leels Loves Books, on behalf of Life as Leels, received a free ebook copy of this book in exchange for my review.
[show-book title=”Inspector Dewey”]
Inspector Dewey is a cute children’s book. It has super cute drawings – mainly of Inspector Dewey and his three best friends; Thumper, Lily, and Anna.
The book and story make a great read aloud for the younger kids, but I would recommend that a child probably 4th grade and above could read it without many struggles. Some of the vocabulary is quite large and some of the words are words not commonly used. Even reading aloud with the kids, some words had to be explained.
I think our favorite parts were when Dewey would get excited and use a fish as his saying – “miserable mullet”, “great grouper”.
In general, the book is very readable. The lettering is bigger than normal which makes it easier to read with the kids. It is longer than what my kids are used to reading aloud too, but it is such a fun book to read with the kids and together as a family!
We are cat lovers in our home so reading about Inspector Dewey, Thumper and Lily was something we all enjoyed!
