More about Nancy Drew
Nancy Drew has challenged gender stereotypes from the very onset! Her favorite color is blue and she has a talent for auto mechanics . . . as well as cooking, horseback riding, dancing, sewing and athletics (what a wonder!).
Nancy's mother died when she was three . . . giving her quite a bit of freedom from parental supervision. She lives with Hannah Gruen, the full-time housekeeper, and her often absent dad, Carson Drew, successful criminal attorney. During the Depression, Nancy's wealth made her an intriguing character. Whether buying gas for her blue roadster or flying in a jet (as she does late in the series), Nancy Drew foots the bill without hesitation.
