5.0 out of 5 stars Great Book!!!
I thought this book was one of the best Nancy Drew books I've ever read! It was so good with a whispering statue and all. I loved this book because you never know who did it until the end. Nancy Drew books like this one always have me tangled up in suspects until they reveal who it is!

3.0 out of 5 stars Weak Entry in the Drew Series
Carolyn Keene's tale of a crooked art dealer suffers from the villain being identified too early and an implausible plot. For hardcore Drew fans only.

4.0 out of 5 stars Okay, original idea, May 22, 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: The Whispering Statue (Nancy Drew #14) (Hardcover)
Nancy is asked to solve a mystery pertaining to rare books that were stolen. As she progresses on the case she ends up in another mystery about a whispering statue, that won't whistle anymore. She starts to work for a person she has under suspcion and tries to uncover clues without getting caught. Can she solve the mystery?

This one was actually pretty interesting. I liked how Nancy actually worked for who she thought was a suspect. That's some guts she's got there. The whispering stature idea was pretty original, I would have never thought up of one like that. This one was one of her more creative ones. Also I liked that Bess and George were in this one because they always seem to make it more exciting.

I reccomned this book to someone who wants to enjoy a good mystery of Nancy Drew.

4.0 out of 5 stars Superb Plot, The Whispering Statue is., August 13, 2001
A Kid's Review
Very good book in the way of how the statue whispers. But does the wind make it whisper, if it's specially designed to talk certain stuff when the wind comes? Because of the holes, probably something like that. I also think this book is nice because of the store that Nancy (Debbie Lynbrook) works in. I like books of all type, and the other stuff seemed interesting. I always go in every bookstore I see. Otherwise, I liked the captures, the criminal gang encounters, and most of that stuff. So if you like 4-star action, think about this book. You'll surely like it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Nancy Drew and You- Solving the Mystery, October 29, 2003
A Kid's Review
This review is from: The Whispering Statue (Nancy Drew #14) (Hardcover)
Nancy Drew has another mystery on her hands, and she needs your help. This mystery book is called The Whispering Statue by Caroline Keene. The book is very good. It is interesting and mysterious. When you are reading this book, you are solving the mystery too. When I read the book, Nancy thought of everything before me in the beginning of the book. However, later in the book, I caught on quicker than before and even found one clue before Nancy did. I really liked solving the mystery with Nancy and her friends. I liked it because I felt like I was in the book too. Finding the Whispering Statue was hard, but we did it, and so can you! All of the Nancy Drew books are mysteries, but this one is particularly mysterious. Nancy has a disguise, and Nancy and her friends must be very careful, so they are not caught. All sorts of things happen, but we make it through and find the Whispering Statue. I won't tell you how, but read The Whispering Statue, and you'll find out!

This review is from: The Whispering Statue (Nancy Drew #14) (Hardcover)
I found this book like most Nancy Drew books a great read. Its was really some when Nancy figured out how the statue whispered. Plus was not dull at when she gets captured and her friends have to rescue her.

3.0 out of 5 stars Review of the 1970s revised edition., September 22, 2009
By 
This review is from: The Whispering Statue (Nancy Drew #14) (Hardcover)
I had the 1970s revised edition-- apparently a nearly total redo of the original 1937 book. No Togo, no jewel thieves. I believe that I have read the original at some point (I first read my aunt's editions of these books) since I actually remember a plot that seems like the description of the original book.

The revised version of The Whispering Statue isn't one of the best Nancy Drew books. The plot is a little bit scattershot, although I do like the bit with Nancy's secret identity. Boys, sailing, adventure and stolen art are the themes of the day in this series entry.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantistic story, August 11, 2008
This review is from: The Whispering Statue (Nancy Drew #14) (Hardcover)
This is by far one of my favorite Nancy Drew mysteries. I read this story in a couple of hours. The plot was intriguing and kept me turning pages until the mystery was solved. I enjoyed reading about the smart ways that Nancy fooled her enemies and solved two cases at the same time. If you are a fan of Nancy Drew then you will not want to miss out on this story!!
