Tour Schedule:



OMG this was so much fun and I literally was cackling at Mr Whisker's puns and the names he called humans. I found Mr Whiskers a very charismatic character so look out Scooby Doo you have competition.


I loved Misty and Zelda as they seemed to be very clever and were able to tell when someone was telling lies unlike the adults and they were very resourceful too.


Again I am not going into spoiler territory but I will say that I loved the way Wendelin wove scenes of San Francisco throughout the story and I felt like I was there.


I would love to see these characters again and for the reasons above I am giving the wonderful Mr Whiskers and the Shenanigan Sisters 5 massive stars.
