Nancy Drew excels again!

This reprint of the original is delightful as Nancy Drew always. There is a lot of heart-pounding action in this mystery as Nancy Drew has some narrow escapes with burning planes and exotic animals.

The Moss Covered Mansion

The Nancy Drew Collection is incredible! As a collector, I enjoy each of the stories. I love the older originals in particular. They contain more substance and much better writing. I feel the newer ones read like comic books. The older ones challenge us at times to pick up a dictionary. Also, these now make great history books as we read about chains that were put on the tires after a rain because most the roads were dirt. We read of a time of typewriters, telegraphs, telephones (no cellphones)and in the earlier ones no mention of television!Some people are offended because of the so called racial slurs. I don't see anything racial about it. This is our history and these kind of folks did and still do exist whether you are speaking about how black folks speak or folks from lower class neighborhoods may behave. These books are true to what is real. There are crooks in poor neighborhoods! And how many poor but good folks has Nancy helped? Black folks often did service jobs. My own mother had a black cleaning lady. I see nothing wrong with that. Any person regardless of color or race can be anything they choose to be in America. Nancy is just real (outside of the fact that her heroistic feats may be a bit more than the average girl could attaint to). We can not condemn her for being born with a silver spoon. We can certainly learn from her as she was brought up to work hard and respect others despite her wealth; and she even attends church on Sunday! Nancy is the empitomy of good values and love for others. I hope Nancy is around for many, many more years for young people to enjoy. I grew up with Nancy and as a collector, she is still my best girl.
