Book Description

A little puppy is turning into a big problem!

Nancy's wish has finally come true: she has a dog of her own. She's a chocolate-colored Labrador retriever, and she's fun and friendly and loves to play. But the pup's also in a sticky situation -- and its up to Nancy to save her.

Hannah's fresh-baked muffins have vanished, and a food thief is loose in the neighborhood. And guess who's getting blamed? Nancy's new puppy. It's so unfair, and she's going to prove it...by finding the real thief!

5.0 out of 5 stars Could Nancy's beloved puppy be a crook?, January 7, 2008

What's more perfect that a cute little puppy licking your nose to show you that he loves you? When Nancy finally gets the dog she's been begging her Dad for, everyone is happy -- at least for a while.

It seems like food has been disappearing, and not just in the Drew household. What's even worse, it seems that the most adorable chocolate-colored puppy in the world is going to be held responsible. Unless, of course, Nancy Drew can get on the case and save her beloved pup!

This book is a solid winner with young female readers.

5.0 out of 5 stars 2nd grade daughter loves this series, August 4, 2007

This review is from: The Puppy Problem (Nancy Drew Notebooks #12) (Paperback)

My 7 year old daughter (just finished 2nd grade) loves this series. She has read almost all of them (including the newer "Clue Crew" editions) this summer. We don't know what we'll do for an encore when she's finished, as the regular Nancy Drew books are still a little long/ intimidating for her (each of these is only about 70 pages). She likes solving the mysteries, but also loves having the familiar characters in every book. We highly recommend them, and will give them as gifts to her friends in the near future.
