Module 13: Nancy Drew #19: Cliffhanger


Petrucha, S. (2009). Nancy drew #19: Cliffhanger. New York, NY: Simon and Schuster.

Summary

Girl detective Nancy Drew is in the woods with a group of scientists searching for an area where a certain plant can grow that might help cure Alzheimer's. When a crime is committed, she chases the thief and in true Nancy fashion, she ends up in danger, hanging from a cliff, but luckily, her good friends and sidekicks George and Bess come to her rescue and help her catch the thief.

Worth Another Cup of Tea?

Being an old-school Nancy Drew fan, I was intrigued by this graphic series. I had never read comics or graphic novels before, and honestly, I don't think I'll start now. I didn't like the way Nancy, George, and Bess were drawn. It was just too different from the original series, and I guess I wasn't ready for change. The story itself was very similar to the old books in its formula.

Reviews

I could not find any reviews of this book.

In The Library

I might suggest this to reluctant readers to get them interested in mysteries and books in general.
