"A nice way for girls who are a bit young for the full Nancy Drew mysteries to be introduced to mysteries and Nancy Drew. Aimed at about 7-year-olds, these books are sort of the beginning of Nancy Drew and how she became a mystery solver. Set at a sleepover, one of the girl's coveted dolls goes missing. Nancy solves the mystery--of course--despite setbacks and the fact that it isn't always easy."
