The four Ninja Meerkat boys have been invited to Australia by Bruce’s
sister. She is an amazing detective but when faced with Koala kidnappers, she
needs some muscle. The Meerkats soon battle some boxing Kangaroo’s and just when
they think its safe, they must go up against a nemesis that they thought was
long gone. Worse yet, someone threw out their special masks that would help
them to fight the bad guys secret weapon.
This series includes a little introduction to each of the
Meerkats in the front of the book, making it readable as a stand alone. I
enjoyed this trip to Australia and liked the strong female character of the
meerkat detective. I sort of wanted to see the meerkats face a new bad guy, but
I still think students would love to read this series. I would enjoy reading more books in this fun, face paced, and well written series.
