By Nancy of course I mean Nancy Drew (and her friends Bess and George).....the upstanding, loyal, detective.
By Donna I mean Donna Parker (and her friend Ricky)....the high-schooler who had friend trouble, and family trouble, and boy trouble.
By Trixie I mean Trixie Belden (and her friends Di and Honey).....the "slightly more spunky than Nancy" detective who was always getting into scrapes.
And last but definitely not least the beloved Anne (and her friend Diana) of Green Gables and the more mysterious and only slightly less beloved Emily (and her friend Ilse) of New Moon.
They seem like friends....friends from my youth....friends who I definitely spent many, many hours voraciously reading about!
Can the rest be far behind?

zoe's been reading them too...she has started calling herself "george" (another girl at school is "nancy.") like you, i hope the rest are not far behind!
Love this post! Brought back great memories of those books. I can't wait to share them with Taylor when she gets older! :)
Hallie is reading Nancy Drew too! Isn't it fun to see your kids love books?
Loved Nancy Drew when I was growing up! I was into Encyclopedia Brown too! :]
Thanks for the ideas. Lauren loves to read and its hard to find wholesome chapter books I think. She is in the middle of the Lauren ingalls wilder books now. She is reading my favorite "on the banks of plum creek" I will recommend these books to her!
You know I love this. How fun that Claremarie has started reading Nancy Drew. I hope she joins the Bob-Whites gang too. She'll even add to her vocab with words like gleeps and dungarees.
By the way, love the special effects pic of CM. Very nice. :)
