Nancy Drew, especially the Nancy of the original story, is our bright heroine, chasing down the shadows, conquering our worst fears, giving us a glimpse of our brave and better selves, proving to everybody exactly how admirable and wonderful a thing it is to be a girl.
–from "I Owe It All to Nancy Drew," by Nancy Pickard
Wow, 80 years old, and still going strong! She’s a wonderment, isn’t she? For tons of trivia about our titian-haired hero, check out the Nancy Drew Sleuth Unofficial Website.
Wow! I think my personality was shaped by Nancy and her pals. When my sister was here last week, we talked about our favorite books and scenes. Now that is a character who left an impression!
She’s awesome, isn’t she?
No wonder you and I are fast friends. Yet another thing that binds us together… xo
I know, right? She’s adapted over the years…throwing off stereotypes, updating her hair/wardrobe, and even getting a brand-new roadster! But she’ll always be admired (loved!) for her independent-minded, intrepid, resourceful spirit.
