Critical Reviews
"Super Sleuth" is quite well done ... O'Connor... has a fine ear for dialogue and includes details that will amuse parents. - New York Times Book Review
"Fans of the Fancy Nancy series will enjoy reading about an old friend in a new, more grown-up setting. Fully fleshed-out secondary characters, especially Nancy's parents and Mr. Dudeny, Nancy's teacher, create a nice backdrop for this new series aimed at transitioning readers. It's hard to write mysteries for a chapter-book audience, but O'Connor creates a plot with subtle clues and red herrings that allow readers to puzzle out the mystery along with Nancy ... Nancy is one sassy gumshoe. Her fans will enjoy growing up with her." - Kirkus Reviews
"O'Connor and Glasser are as in synch as ever, and readers who have grown up with Fancy Nancy will be thrilled to follow her new career path." - Publishers Weekly
