NOT MUCH RESEMBLANCE
Derived From Web , Jun 1, 2022
I have a copy of the 1930 book and there is not a whole lot of resemblance between the story in my book and your version. Frankly, I like my book version much better than the one you sold. Relationships are different, names are somewhat different and the story in my book is far more exciting than yours. It seems to me that your version is someone writing down what they remember of the story.

The hidden staircase
Derived From Web , Sep 8, 2021
The great staircase, another hidden Nancy, drew the mystery. I read all Nancy's mysteries from the time I was reread and reread. I am a child now, and I am seventy.

Fun from a gentler time
Derived From Web , Oct 10, 2020
It is a nice escape to go back to a time without blood and gore and enjoy a spunky, high integrity, successful young woman. I needed this break.

Not as good as the original!
Derived From Web , Aug 25, 2020
Read the original book from the 1940s and certain parts of the story have been changed to modernize for young readers. In the original, it was so much fun to read about Nancy and her convertible, rather than the convertible in this version.

Persistence is key
Derived From Web , Apr 6, 2020
Nancy Drew loves solving mysteries. She was tasked with solving a ghost mystery at Twin Olk. There a mother and a daughter have been mysteriously haunted by a ghost who steals their jewllery, food and play eerie music in the walls. As exciting as that may be Nancy's father, life was threatened as he was working on a railroad case where a dishonest man tries to get more money for himself out of the anger made by the lawyers and residents near the railway. Nancy's life becomes complicated when her father turns missing while trying to solve her mystery at Twin Oaks. Doing great seluthing, picking up clues where they fall, following strong hunches and being very persistent, she bridges the gap between the mystery at twin Oaks and the disapperance of her father.
