""Rediscovering Nancy Drew is a rich collection of literary memories and insightful cultural comments.""--Journal of Children's Literature""Nancy, 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.
