Nancy Drew is a brand that's been on readers' shelves for more than 80 years, popular with both young and older fans. Readers will enjoy solving the hands-on mysteries with Nancy, Bess and George. Nancy and company return to their mystery-solving roots: resourceful, perceptive, deductive, they rely on their wits first and then use technology to assist them.

Nancy continues to be a positive role model for readers: intelligent and perceptive, loyal and persevering. Striking illustrative covers featuring Nancy in action and suspense-filled stories will attract old and new fans alike, and make for an exciting, page-turning mystery series. This series targets the 8 to 12 age group. And the stories will be a bit longer as well. There are also going to be hardcover versions with dust jackets in addition to the regular paperback versions. There is also an illustrator for the series, Emily McGuire. This series harkens back to the Nancy Drew books of the past where Nancy and her friends will rely more on their wits and their brains (much like classic Nancy Drew) to solve mysteries instead of relying so much on technology like they did in the Girl Detective series. The new Nancy Drew series from Simon & Schuster, Nancy Drew Diaries, debuted February 2013 with volumes 1 and 2 and then two more to follow the rest of the year and around 3 more each year thereafter.
