      Ms. Spencer’s Secret

      Guess what? Bess Marvin gasped. We’re getting a new teacher! A man!"

      Eight-year-old Nancy Drew frowned. How do you know? she asked.

      That’s him, Bess said. She pointed to a man in the school playground. He was standing beside their third-grade teacher, Ms. Spencer. The man had curly black hair and a dimple in his chin.

      Bess pushed her long blond hair out of her face. I don’t want a new teacher. Not now—not ever! Ms. Spencer is the best.

      Nancy was about to agree. But just then George Fayne ran up to join them. George’s curly dark hair bounced as she ran. She was Bess’s cousin and Nancy’s other best friend.

      What’s wrong with you two? George asked. You look upset.

      We’re getting a new teacher, Bess repeated. A man.

      George put her hands on her hips. Who told you? she asked Bess.

      Well, Bess said slowly. "It’s just a rumor. I guess it might not be true...."

      George pointed a finger at her cousin. Who told you? she asked again.

      Bess’s cheeks turned a little pink. It was Brenda Carlton, she admitted.

      Brenda Carlton? Nancy asked. Her eyes opened wide. Brenda was the most gossipy girl in the third grade.

      I wouldn’t believe anything Brenda says, George said with a laugh. She makes up stories all the time.

      I know, Bess said. But Brenda promises it’s true. She heard Ms. Spencer talking to him. Ms. Spencer said, ‘I haven’t told the class yet.’ And then she said something about leaving.

      Nancy turned to watch her teacher carefully. Ms. Spencer and the man were looking at a piece of paper. Nancy wasn’t sure what the paper was. She thought it might be a list.

      "She has been acting weird lately, George said. She whispers to the other teachers all the time."

      And she’s been writing something secret, Bess said.

      You’re right, Nancy said. Something is going on. I’m going to see if I can find out what.

      Nancy straightened her bright blue sweatshirt. Then she tightened the matching blue scrunchie in her hair. It held her reddish blond hair in a ponytail.

      I don’t want my new teacher to see me looking sloppy, Nancy thought.

      Should we come with you? George asked.

      Nancy shook her head. Wait here.
