Be Aware of Sensitive Issues
I had never read Nancy Drew books, so I started to read Book 1 to determine what I thought of it. I found that in just the first several pages, there were three characters who had lost one or both parents in childhood. The 5-year-old child rescued by Nancy had lost both of her parents due to an accident, that child's mother had also lost both of her parents when she was little, and Nancy herself, who is 18 in the story, had lost her mother. I was concerned that my sensitive, introspective 9-year-old granddaughter might be troubled by those scenarios and worry about her own life, so I returned the set. I am surprised not to find other reviewers expressing concern about this, but I believe that it is important to take into account, even if only so adults can prepare children - especially younger, impressionable ones - for what they will encounter in the book.

JerryRigEverything donation to sponsor Kenya Library
JerryRigEverything (Youtube channel) was building a brand new 19,000 book size facility in Doldol, Kenya for children ages 5-16.They don't have enough literacy in Kenya, so Zach (the YT channel owner who built this library) was looking for donations from folks abroad. And this is one of the books (sets) that I donated.Children's books like these were building blocks for children like myself to form good values and learn lessons that would serve us later in life. And this is the perfect type of reading material for young impressionable minds. I fondly remember turning back the colorful pages of text books like this during my youth.You simply can't go wrong with this purchase. It applies to any generation.

My niece learned to read because of these!
I am a retired teacher and I was appalled that my grand niece still could not read by 4th grade. It is not an exaggeration to say that Nancy Drew taught her to read. I bought her this starter set because she began reading the books in her school library. I will plan to add to the starter set once she finished them.
