I love the King & Kayla readers, although I wish they would feature Kayla a little more. These are dog books, not books about a kid with a dog. Which is fine but the covers and the descriptions make it sound like King & Kayla are a team (think Hardy Boys or the Bobsey Twins) but King is Sherlock Holmes and Kayla is Inspector Lestrade (not even Watson in her own series!), always a day late and a dollar short.

I liked how the characters used critical thinking skills to solve a problem. There is some diversity in with the main characters. I do wish the illustrations depicted the details in the story a bit more. So many kids depend on inference when beginning to read and figure out words. Great book otherwise.

I love these books! Berry does, too. I wasn't sure she was even listening, because she likes to talk while I read her books, but afterwards she recapped some of the happenings to me. This time around King and Kayla are investigating the disappearance of King's ball! What they find, instead, is a new friend. :)
