Bookroo's summary

Nancy's volunteer week takes a turn when she's accused of stealing from Mrs. Rutledge's prized dollhouse. As suspicion looms, Nancy must rely on her detective skills to prove her innocence. Can she uncover the real culprit and restore her reputation, or will the mystery of the missing doll furniture remain unsolved? Dive into a tale of intrigue and determination as Nancy navigates the challenges of being both a suspect and a sleuth.

From the publisher

Is Nancy a dollhouse thief? It’s volunteer week at Carl Sandburg Elementary School, and Nancy is very excited about her job. She will be walking Mrs. Rutledge’s dog, Baby. Mrs. Rutledge owns the biggest, fanciest house in River Heights. And she also owns the smallest one – a beautiful antique dollhouse. Nancy loves the tiny furniture and little windows of the dollhouse almost as much as she loves walking Baby. 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? This time Nancy must use her very best detective skills to get herself out of trouble!
