Title: I Never Forgot Trixie Belden
Review: The sixth book in the Trixie Belden series, "Mystery in Arizona", kindled in me a love of the Southwest I have to this day. While the plot evades me (I last read it at the age of eleven) the things that stood out were the vivid descriptions of Southwestern landscapes, a world where cowboys and horses still roamed. I could certainly relate to Trixie's having to finish an English composition on her vacation time to keep from failing the subject! (Compositions and term papers were the bane of my existence all through school!) Her efforts were complicated, of course, by the mysteries which seemed to follow her everywhere.Trixie was the kind of girl I wanted to be--tough, independent, and smart (often smarter than the adults she encountered). It's sad these books are no longer produced--girls need a role model like her.
