I read the story, The Clue in the Old Album by Carolyn Keene. the story was about Nancy Drew. She was a tall girl. She was also good looking and smart. Nancy had cousins named Bess and George.They helped her solve mysteries. Ned was a very close friend.
Two of Nancy's friends, Mrs. Sluther, and her granddaughter, Rose, had lots of dolls. Some were Asian, others were Italian. One day Nancy was admiring a doll with a sword. The doll’s sword poked her and before she knew it she had fainted and a doctor was there. The doll had poisoned her!The DR. said that Nancy should sleep and that's just what she did. The next day Mrs. Sluther found that two of her dolls were missing! The only clue they had was that Nancy had seen a charcoal black car with a gypsy symbol on the tire that was speeding away.
The next day Ned and Nancy went to a fair. Nancy saw a poster that read “gypsy wedding tickets 10$ each”. Nancy didn’t hesitate for she knew that the people who stole Mrs. Sluther’s dolls were Gypsies with a charcoal black car. And there it was, the charcoal black car! Nancy thought it weird that a Gypsy would have a car. At the wedding Nancy saw that the priest was giving a doll out. But it wasn't Mrs.Sluther’s doll. She caught the names of two of the gypsies. They were Neaka and Atomn.
The next day she followed them to the gypsy camp. Before she knew it she was in a trailer with a hanky around her mouth. They had given her a sleeping drug! The trailor came to a violent stop-and her dad barged in with the police. Neaka and Atomn were captured for stealing in the past and kidnaping Nancy. The police also found Mrs Sluther’s dolls. They gave them back to her. She and Rose were happy to have the dolls back safely.
I like this story because it has adventure. I also like mysteries which this is. I will keep reading the Nancy Drew series!
