Kiwi and the Missing Magic (Kiwi Series #2)By:  Vickie JohnstoneAISN:  B005AL3D7QPublished July 4, 2011Available Format:  ebookMy Rating:  '''''In Kiwi in Cat City, we were introduced to the magical world of Kiwi and her friends in Cat City. For the second installment of the series, Amy and James join Kiwi in the city again, and there is, naturally, another mystery to solve. This time, the city is suddenly threatened by a giant mouse, and it is up to the gang to find out how he got into Cat City and what exactly he is doing there. In addition, some of the Magic is missing, which could be extremely dangerous for all the catizens. Some old friends are revisited while some new, super cute characters are introduced to round out this highly entertaining, furry fun adventure. You won't want to miss it!I have been dying to jump into book two of the Kiwi series since I finished Kiwi in Cat City a couple months ago. I was absolutely not disappointed, of course. Kiwi is such great fun, and it is interesting to see this new world through the eyes of Amy and James as they transform into cats and must integrate themselves into the feline society. I thought it was such a great idea to bring James' hamster into the group to help them solve this new mystery.I admit, I was a bit thrown off in the beginning when we meet the bees, but later in the story I saw how that tied into what was going on in Cat City, so all was well again. Other than that little bit of temporary confusion, there was absolutely nothing wrong with this adorable story! I love the personalities of each and every one of the characters, and there is always something neat to learn about what happens in the fantastical city.It is always great, also, to find a good children's/YA series that adults can fully enjoy as well. It is a great story to share with your children or just keep for yourself if you are so inclined!I can't wait to see what is next for Ms. Kiwi and the kittens. Maybe it won't take me two months to dive into Kiwi and the Living Nightmare!
