Judy Moody and Friends: Judy Moody and the Missing Mood Ring

WWNDD? What Would Nancy Drew Do? Judy and her new friend, Mighty Fantaskey, take cues from their favorite sleuth as they search for a lost mood ring in a spooky attic.

Judy Moody is freaky for Nancy Drew, the famous girl detective from the book series. Nancy Drew is an ace at solving mysteries with brains, bravery, and bobby pins, and Judy is determined to solve mysteries too. So when Judy bumps into Mighty Fantaskey, she is excited to meet another Nancy Drew fan and to make a new friend. Excited, that is, until she visits Mighty’s house: it’s big and old and creaky and definitely haunted. It even turns Judy’s mood ring the color of fear! On Judy’s first visit, she hightails it out of there, leaving Mighty in the dust. But where is Judy’s favorite ring? Jeepers! Can Judy pluck up enough courage to go back and find it—and solve the real-life mystery waiting in Mighty’s attic?
