I have always loved to read. I remember as a kid, spending the summers in my room, reading book after book. My favorite series back then was Nancy Drew. I had every single book, and wish I had saved them, but my mom can't remember what happened to them.
In celebration of school starting back, I am going to give three lucky readers a brand new, never read, hardcover Nancy Drew Book. You're excited, right?
These are the three books:
In celebration of school starting back, I am going to give three lucky readers a brand new, never read, hardcover Nancy Drew Book. You're excited, right?
These are the three books:

Nancy's Mysterious Letter: By mistake, Nancy Drew receives a letter from England intended for an heiress, also named Nancy Drew. When Nancy undertakes a search for the missing young woman, it becomes obvious that a ruthless, dangerous man is determined to prevent her from finding the heiress or himself. Clues that Nancy unearths lead her to believe that the villianous Edgar Nixon plans to marry the heiress and then steal her inheritance.
The Sign of the Twisted Candles: Another exciting mystery begins for the attractive young detective when her friends Bess and George ask her to investigate a rumor that their wealthy greatgranduncle, Asa Sidney, is virtually a prisoner in his own mansion. But solvng the mystery and befriending Carol Wipple, the sixteen year old foster daughter of the caretakers of the old mansion, nearly costs Nancy the friendship of Bess and George. It takes all of Nancy's sleuthing ability as well as diplomacy to save it.

What a great giveaway! I used to work in a homeschool bookstore up until the end of May (it went out of business) and I always got a kick out of seeing the old hardcover Hardy Boys and Nancy Drew books. It's amazing that they are still popular today with all of the Twilight craze and Harry Potter fanatics. Good for you for putting something sweet back out there!
I LOVED reading Nancy Drew mysteries as well! They were my favorite! I'm following you already.
Yeah! I never read Nancy Drew, but I want to have my daughter read them when she is old enough. My favorites were always Ramona Quimby, the babysitters club, sweet valley twins, Christopher Pike, can you tell I read A LOT?
I tweeted!
Awesome Nancy Drew three book giveaway going on over at http://www.mykidsaremyworld.com/2009/08/nancy-drew-giveaway.html Check it out!
I loved Nancy Drew as a kid and I also had them all. I don't know where they went either. I have started my niece on them so these would be an excellent addition to her collection.

Ooooh, I LOVED Nancy Drew as a kid. Why don't kids read these anymore?? Well, maybe they do, but mine didn't.
Oooh ME ME ME ME!
I read many Nancy Drew books as a kid. And of course the GirlTalk, Sweet Valley High, and all those ridiculous books, lol.
Oh and I already follow you!
This is a great parenting site. When I get married, I'm going to make sure my wife goes to websites like this one. I have a site myself where anyone can freely express their opinions on controversial debate topics. Check it out when you get the chance and feel free to express your thoughts on any topic. We have some parenting ones in there.
Also, maybe we can exchange links. Let me know if this is possible.

I loved Judy Blume when I was smaller. Freckle Juice was one of my favorites :)
Wow - so many books to choose from for a favorite as I have always loved to read! I think some of my favorites were the Little House series by Laura Ingalls Wilder. I read those over and over again!
