Kate on the Case: The Call of the Silver Wibbler (Kate on the Case 2)

A wonderful book by Hannah peck. I loved the story and the characters within the book. Looking forward to the next Kate on the case Mystery.

Thank you NetGalley for an advanced copy of this book in exchange of my honest opinion!

I've seen the first book in the series at work for many months and it has always caught my eye! So I couldn't resist myself when I saw that the second one was available here!

I was a bit hesitant, though, as I wasn't sure if it was better to read the first book first, but as each book follows a different case, I found no problems at all following the story!

I really enjoyed this cute mystery! I thought it is perfect for any kid 5+, and they will be able to have an amazing time reading about Kate and her two peculiar, best friends!

The only thing I could complain about is that in the kindle edition I read, the pictures were all over the place and couldn't see them properly.

Other than that, I am so excited to keep reading this series!

Kate and her dad are travelling on Miss Custard, a white steamboat enjoying a trip courtesy of Kate’s idol who got in touch after reading her brilliant story aboard the Arctic Express. Ms. Rodriguez asked Kate to write a special story while aboard Miss Custard.

The story is about shrimp and Kate is not entirely inspired by this piece so when a more exciting prospect falls into her lap, she immediately sets things in motion. New friend Bertie, and pet mouse, Rupert are with her every step of the way as they read an old diary of an intrepid bird spotter, named Bloom. He was searching for the silver wibbler for many years without luck.

Bertie, Kate and Rupert use some clever tricks, like lock picking, pirating and map making to discover the truth behind this elusive bird.

Kate is a brilliant “special correspondent” like her idol and can spot a story a mile off. She has just the right skills and determination, not to mention curiosity to discover clues and find answers.

This series is brilliant and I love that Kate travels with Dad while mum is off making amazing seaweed discoveries. Rupert is the ultimate best friend, supporting their adventures at every opportunity.
The illustrations are superb and make this the perfect series for young readers wanting to move into more in depth mysteries without missing out on all the fab pictures!
