Synopsis
In her paper-over-board chapter book debut, Nancy Clancy must find the culprit when a prized possession goes missing at school. Fancy Nancy is growing up-she's now appearing in her first ever chapter book! It's Parents' Day at school, and Nancy and her classmates are displaying their most prized possessions. Then one mysteriously vanishes (that's fancy for goes missing)! It's up to Nancy and her sidekick, Bree, to crack the case, but will Nancy realize the culprit is right under her nose?

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.
