Read an article recently that the children's book character, Nancy Drew, turns 80 this month. Never wimpy or whining, Nancy used her wits and smarts to get out of all sorts of jams. Written by a slew of ghost writers, no pun intended, there have been 500 Nancy Drew mysteries written and there seems no end in sight for the Americas favorite teenage sleuth and an inspiration to this inquiring mind.
