 Timeless Nancy Drew October 2, 2008
Considering that the Nancy Drew series is 78 years old, I would say that it has stood the test of time. If you're not into the original series from 1930-1979 (56 books in all), there have been many updates and additional series spawned from this character. You may think old when you see these books, but the stories are great, there's always a little edge of danger, cliffhangers on each chapter and it shows young ladies a strong, independent character with drive and smarts. Plus, there's just a great vibe you get from handling the slim hardcover novels and looking the painted illustrations on the cover.

I was surprised at how bad the writing in these books was. The first book in particular was extremely poorly-written and would not be published today. I'm sure it was groundbreaking at the time, but there are honestly far better choices for children's books these days.

NANCY DREW BOOKS BRING ME BACK TO THE 1950'S. I'VE INTRODUCED MY DAUGHTERS AND NOW MY OLDER GRANDAUGHTER. WHAT A GREAT WAY TO SHOW MY GRANDAUGHTER WHAT HER GRANDMOTHER DELIGHTED IN SO-O-O LONG AGO.

I purchased these books for my grand daughter who is 7 years old and already an avid reader.
I enjoyed these books growing up so I hope she will get as much enjoyment out of them as I did.
