Nancy Drew books for 12 y/o Patience who loves to read

Posted Jun 22, 2017
Over the last year, Patience has been in a residential facility where she has made improvements since finding her love for reading! Patience is very hopeful that she will find a pre-adoptive home soon, but until then, would love to continue reading to keep herself busy and comfortable. Recently, she has discovered the Nancy Drew series and she can't get enough of them! Patience has asked for books of her own that feature the classic girl detective!

Prudence is 19 years old and lives in IN

Prudence is a bright and charming girl who has struggled to find her place in the world. DCS had to intervene with her family multiple times throughout her young life, eventually leading to the termination of her parents’ rights. She has siblings who have found their forever homes, but currently Patience is at a residential facility because of behaviors stemming from her struggles forming strong and lasting attachments to previous caregivers. Prudence loves horses and reading and has a smile that absolutely lights up a room! She always has little handmade gifts for her Guardian Ad Litem, siblings, and others who visit her, and she is proud of how well she has been doing in school.
