But one day, five pieces of doll furniture are missing, and Mrs. Rutledge thinks Nancy took them! But Nancy is a detective, not a thief...right? Nancy must use her very best detective skills to get herself out of trouble!

Baby Steps
Squirrel alert!" eight-year-old Nancy Drew said.
Nancy gripped two leashes as a little gray squirrel dashed across the sidewalk. Her puppy, Chocolate Chip, pulled at her leash. So did Baby, the other dog Nancy was walking.
Stay, Chip!
Nancy ordered. Stay, Baby! Stay!
Woof, woof, woof!
Chip barked.
Yip, yip, yip!
Baby yapped.
Nancy grunted as she tugged both leashes. Then she shouted in her loudest voice, Okay, you guys! Cool your jets!
The dogs stopped barking and stared up at Nancy. As the squirrel scurried away Nancy took a deep breath. Walking two dogs wasn’t easy. But she was getting good at it.
Hi, Nancy!
a voice called.
Nancy looked up and smiled. Her best friends, Bess Marvin and George Fayne, were walking toward her.
Bess and George were cousins and in Nancy’s third grade class.
Bess was dressed in white overalls and was pushing a red wheelbarrow. George was wearing blue jeans, a gray sweatshirt, and was carrying a clear plastic bag filled with cans over her shoulder.
Nancy knew why. It was the first day of Community Week—when all the kids at Carl Sandburg Elementary School helped out in the neighborhood.
How do you like planting flowers, Bess?
Nancy asked.
Bess nodded at her wheelbarrow. It was filled with bags of soil, shovels, and packets of seeds. "Business is blooming! she said with a grin.
That’s a gardening joke."
Nancy giggled.
And look at all the cans I collected for recycling!
George said. She held up her plastic bag. I didn’t know so many people liked canned peas.
Baby sniffed at a can of dog food through the bag. He belonged to Mrs. Gertrude Rutledge. Nancy’s job during Community Week was to walk Baby.
The best part was that she could walk Chip along with Baby. The second best part was that Mrs. Rutledge lived in the fanciest house in River Heights!
What kind of dog is that, Nancy?
George asked. She nodded at Baby. He looks like a white mop without a stick.
Baby yapped at George.
Baby is a Maltese,
Nancy said. She put her finger against her lip. And don’t let Baby hear you call him a mop!
Are you walking Baby every day?
Bess asked.
Just today, Wednesday, and Friday,
Nancy replied. That’s when Mrs. Rutledge has tea with her granddaughters—they’re twins! Mrs. Rutledge’s housekeeper Olivia is too busy serving tea on those days to walk Baby.
Bess’s blue eyes shone as she twirled the end of her blond ponytail.
"I heard Mrs. Rutledge’s house has a swimming pool
