Review: This is a must-own, and it's a great gift for your girlfriends. I used to own every Nancy Drew book, and her adventures--and her grown up teenager sophistication--came to mind on many occasions while growing up. How great to see some of them again in this new form!

Summary: Great fun for Nancy Drew fans/nostalgic 30 or 40 somethings!
Review: This miniature book makes the PERFECT stocking stuffer or small gift for any Nancy Drew fan, or anybody who read Nancy Drew growing up, even if they haven't kept that interest in later life. It gets 5 stars just for the nostalgia value, and I love the way it makes gentle, affectionate fun of the girl genius who could do everything (paint like Picasso, ski like a pro, sing, dance, act, ride horses like a champion.....oh, and I guess she was a detective, too!).

The book, complete with a hanging magnifying glass bookmark on an attached ribbon, is divided into sections: Survival Strategies, Dating: A Primer, Sleuthing 101, The Delicate Art of Etiquette, Wilderness Tips, On Being a Lady, Powers of Observation, and Accoutrements. Many of the book covers and interior illustrations we remember are reproduced throughout, and the text consists of tips and the titles of the book the tip comes from.

As a single example, here's my personal favorite: "If you see something resembling a shark in a river, don't fret. It's more likely to be a small submarine operated by thieves." -- The Mystery of Lilac Inn. I never in a million years would have remembered that on my own, but it all comes back when you read this little gem! What fun!
