Since I read somewhere that the older version of Nancy Drew features a younger, feistier Nancy Drew, I opted for this edition of book one instead of the later version from the 50's. My daughter would rather read the popular titles that today's kids are reading. My daughter is an avid reader, who, once enamored of an author, will read that author's entire series, but this is the first book in a year she simply put down and had no interest in. I read it, and being old school, loved the turn of phrase from a bygone era. I'll try the newer version on her to see if that makes a difference. Give it a try, but don't be disappointed if your child prefers the likes of Geronimo Stillton, Judy Blume or JK Rowling.
actually had the book as a little girl and still do.So when I listened to it it followed perfectly it was great.
Along the way she finds about two sisters who were told by Josiah that they would be inheriting money from him when he dies.So the adventure begins and with tons of excitement for your little girl and the young at heart.I really liked this story and it was quite a page-turner. My Review:This story sets out as any other story we learn about the background of Nancy and then in then by the third chapter the mystery begins. The Tophans seem to think that the money from Mr. Being the curious girl she is Nancy decided to find out the truth. This book grabs your attention from the very first page. Crowly belongs to them since they took care of him for years before his death.
I used to enjoy Nancy Drew mysteries as a kid but I never read the original ones. This mystery is about the whearabouts of a second will left by Josiah. I almost could not put it down but life got in the way. Ms. Drew quickly finds out that he has other friends that and the he possibly had a second will from the old lady Abby Rowen he one of her rants. I think I read the files series.
I hope to introduce Nancy Drew to my daughter when she is older.I rate this a 5/5
nancy drew is a fun series to read.you never no who is the thief in the nancy drew series.my favorite book in the series is book 30 clue of the velvet mask.right now i am reading the book and i think mr.tombar is one of the thiefs of the missing jewelry.and the movie nancy drew is a very cute and funny movie.so make sure you read all the nancy drew stories because you are missing out.better start reading.seriously you are missing out.
I totaly luv nancy drew books. I started out playing the pc games and am stuck on the mystery of the scarlet hand,it is sooooo hard. Every1 should read them.this was probably 1 of the best ones out of the series. I'm reading them all in order and have read 1/2 of them. After I did some of the games and luved them, my mom told me to read the books the first one i read was the mystery of the 99 steps but was to little to understand it I recomend the books for ages 10 and up. You should totaly get this book.
