A Good Detective...

 Title: The Nancy Drew Sleuth Book: Clues to Good Sleuthing
                                     # of Pages: 152
                                     Author: Carolyn Keene
                                     Previous Work:

                                                     The rest of the Nancy Drew series
                                                     (This is a companion novel)

                                     Summary: Nancy Drew starts a mystery club, to teach her
                                     friends how to solve mysteries, like her. As they bring in
                                     different mysteries they've found around town, Nancy teaches
                                     them (and us) different techniques to use to crack the case.
                                     
                                     Rating: I'd give this book a 3.5.
                                     Awards: None

                                     Opinion: This book is really cool. There's a chapter on code
                                     cracking and they gave a tip that allowed me, by the end of the
                                     book, to crack a code. However, some of the tips were outdated.
                                     The handwriting analysis was entirely in cursive. And most
                                     houses no longer have false floors. But altogether this was a
                                     very fun, enjoyable book.
