For budding amateur sleuths, Nancy Drew and her Clue Crew pals George and Bess are the ultimate role models. Winter has come to River Heights, and the girls are busy making a snowman-affectionately named Sherlock. They are distracted, however, by one of their classmates. It seems Deirdre has changed her name to Madame Chocolata, and she's reading marshmallows to tell fortunes. Then Sherlock disappears, and an outbreak of pranks plagues the kids. Could Sherlock have come to life-or is someone less frosty behind everything?

"Another innocent fun read. My five-year-old daughter solved some aspects of the mystery, which made her feel like one of Nancy's Clue Crew. I love that the characters - main and supporting - good and bad - are cool without being cruel. We will continue to make our way through the series."

" It's probably as good an introduction to the mystery genre for early-grade kids as most things being published nowadays. It's not interesting at all for an adult, though, and it only vaguely resembles the world of the "classic" Nancy Drew books. "
