Summary: A Book Worth Reading, But Just Barely
Review: Nancy, Bess and George join the Footlighters, an amateur acting group located at the nearby Van Pelt estate, so that Nancy can investigate sightings of a dancing life-size puppet which has been haunting the grounds of the estate. Personally, I didn't find the mystery in this book to be all that exciting, the puppet wasn't spooky at all and there wasn't much action to be found. The end of the book wasn't very good as the main criminals are arrested well before the book ends and this happens in a typically boring Nancy Drew fashion. However, I was pleasantly surprised to find the book as well written as it was; it certainly is not classic literature, but it was a step up from the atrocious writing found in most of the high (from #35 up) Nancy Drew books. The characters were well-defined and actually had personality, unlike in a lot of the books of the series, where the characters are either good or bad. Isn't wasn't the most exciting book, but at least when I finished it I hadn't felt as though I had just wasted my time.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: ONE OF THE GREAT NANCY DREW MYSTERIES!
Review: THE CLUE OF THE DANCING PUPPET was a very fun book to read. I couldn't put it down. Nancy is asked to investigate again; this time she checks out a puppet that is seen dancing across the lawn of an old estate, home of an acting group. She follows the puppet but doesn't get anywhere the first time. Ned, Burt and Dave make an appearance as well as Bess and George. Nancy acts in a play, which makes Ned kind of mad. This is a great book for any major (or not-so-major) Nancy Drew fan to read. You are sure to love it!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Book review for Mrs. Willis' class
Review: This book is about how a detective named Nancy Drew solves a

mystery. She solves The Mystery of the Dancing Puppet. There

are many suspects that Nancy could pick from.

Nancy Drew is a brave character because she solved the

mystery. If she wasn't caring , she would not help other

people. Nancy was a sharing person- she told the police

the clues.

The conflict of this story is that someone was stealing

and hiding jewelry. Many people were accused of hiding the

jewelry and the puppet act. It was hard to see who

started it.

Nancy Drew solved the conflict by finding clues. She

looked at them closely to see who was the suspect. The mystery

was solved when she found out who hid the jewelry and put on the

puppet act, and had them placed in jail.

I would recommend this book to others. If you like a

good mystery, this is the book for you. I enjoyed reading this

book.
