Official Nancy Drew Handbook: Skills, Tips, and Life Lessons Hardcover – 1 Nov. 2007

I would totally give this book five stars had the publisher not chosen to use a lighter blue ink color for the text. Very hard to see except in the best light. I would love to have seen it done in black ink so I could enjoy it more. Other than that, it's a great gift for girls "of a certain age" who voraciously read Nancy Drew right through the series when they were young.

I know in the description it said the book was used and for four dollars I wasn't really expecting much. But when I got this I was really pleased. It was in perfect condition and on top of that, this book is kind of hilarious. I bought it for a friend who really loves Nancy Drew and I know she will be really happy with this.

This super creative book keeps your mind going and your own creative juices flowing! Some great ideas are between these pages for the young girl in all of us!

Our Daughter is a Nancy Drew lover and we purchased her several ND books for her birthday. This was one of the top three. It is a great choice if you have a Nancy Drew lover in the house.

I gave this book to my 12 year old niece and minutes later overheard her and her friends giggling away. If want to know how to apply lipstick while engaging in a high-speed car chase, look stylish while digging up dead bodies, or escape from the bad guys without messing up your hair, you'll love this book.

Perfect for any Nancy Drew enthusiast or as an introduction to classic girl sleuth.

I love it. Just what I wanted at a great price.

unusual fine. great for a nancy drew fan, young or old

Don't bother...not worth it.

A great book to enhance the collection of Nancy Drew books by an admirer of her mystery stories. Healthy and mind thought encouragement to young readers.

Very fun read

My daughter, 18 years oldness a Nancy Drew fan, loved it.

A great book for Nancy Drew fans, or any girls alike! There are actually some very good tips in here for a myriad of things. Love love love it!

I recently received an e-mail from Amazon.com inviting me to review "The Official Nancy Drew Handbook" and "Nancy Drew's Guide to Life". Actually, I think, it was more of a challenge to explain why a 92-year-old geezer would be buying a couple of books culling bits of wisdom from a popular girls' book series of generations past. The answer is a vision of a serious little girl, reading in a quiet corner about life in simpler times, and self-reliance, and courage. She's the mother of three grown men now, twin grandchildren, contemplating retirement from a lifetime of teaching. She's visiting us next month and I want to surprise her. And hear her laugh.
