Synopsis
Eight-year-old Nancy Drew has her first case to crack! Can you help?
Nancy and her two best friends, George and Bess, are so excited! They have been invited to Deirdre's sleepover party! There will be pizza, cake, and even a pajama fashion show. But the most exciting thing is that the party has a City Girls doll theme. All of the guests are bringing their dolls with them!
But then Deirdre's City Girls doll — Hollywood Heather — goes missing. Is her sleepover ruined? Or is there a detective in the room who can make sense of this mystery?
Children's Literature
As an eight-year-old third grader, Nancy Drew loves to solve mysteries. Three girls get invited to a sleepover at Deirdre Shannon's, where they play games, eat pizza and cake, and watch Deirdre open her presents. However, one present catches the girls' attention: the City Doll Hollywood Heather. After a good night's sleep, a panicked Deirdre wakes Nancy up to tell her that her Hollywood Heather doll is missing and begs her to help solve the case. Nancy, George, and Bess set out to discover who has taken the missing doll. The three girls collect evidence, generate a suspect list, and begin to question the other girls who attended the sleepover. Once they have questioned the last suspect, they turn their attention to another girl, Madison Foley, Deirdre's best friend. Could Madison be the culprit? This novel helps to teach readers not to jump to conclusions when something goes missing but investigate to find out the truth. In this first book of the Clue Crew series, Nancy narrates the story, giving readers an inside look into her mystery-solving techniques and thought processes and helps them take part in cracking the case. This series, for the youngest Nancy Drew readers, will hook readers into Carolyn Keene's series books—an author who gives them lots to grow on. Reviewer: Koressa Arneson

October 04, 2009: This is the perfect way to introduce your young child to the Nancy Drew series. My daughter is turning 6, and enjoys them. The only complaint she has is there are not enough pictures (she wants one on every page). I also got these as gifts for some of her friends and they love them. There are appropriate for the age listed, easy to follow. Great series.
