Product Description

Meet Nancy, who believes that more is ALWAYS better when it comes to being fancy. From the top of her tiara down to her sparkly studded shoes, Nancy is determined to teach her family a thing or two about being fancy.

How Nancy transforms her parents and little sister for one enchanted evening makes for a story that is funny and warm -- with or without the frills.

4 out of 5 stars Grand daughter loved it!   May 1, 2010
Grits (South, USA)
We got this for one of our grand daughters (just about 6 at the time), and she loved it. I don't know what else to say about it beyond that, since that's what counts I'd say that's all that matters. We had it sent directly to her, so we were unable to read it ourselves first, but our daughter read it with her and was not concerned at all about the content in it (so often that's a problem these days, even with young children's books - fortunately not in this case).

So, the most qualified reviewer available (a 6 year old girl) says it was great!



5 out of 5 stars Fancy Nancy is Stupendous!   February 12, 2010
D. Roedner (Austin TX USA)
My four-year-old daughter loves this book. Yes, she is in her own fancy stage and relates to the book's protagonist. But there is so much more to this story than the surface narrative. The illustrations, for example, are almost a parallel story in themselves. My daughter loves to point out how Nancy's toddler sister tries to copy everything her very cool, very fancy big sister does. And the way the book opens on Nancy's room before and after it was made fancy provides a wonderful opportunity to point out the differences, AND (for the reviewer who thinks this book is all about materialism and consumption)a lot of laughs about how inexpensively, simply and ingeniously that fanciness was achieved. Nancy's family is wonderfully supportive and loving. When she advertises a "How to Be Fancy" class on the refrigerator, the whole family drops what they're doing, shows up, listens and takes notes. This is a terrific story that encourages kids, especially girls, to be confident in their choices, makes it ok to be an individual and reminds them of the power of family.


5 out of 5 stars Cute & Fancy   February 3, 2010

A great kid's book full of cute and colorful illustrations depicting a fun and whimsical young lady sure to please the younguns out there. Good way to get the kids to start reading at an early age. Books are awesome!


5 out of 5 stars Little Girls Will Love Fancy Nancy   January 26, 2010
Charluke (Westchester, New York)
My daughter received her first Fancy Nancy book on her second birthday and immediately fell in love with it. She has since gotten others in the series, which are just as enjoyable. The story is very cute and it has taught my daughter, as at very early age, that there are many (and sometimes fancier) ways of saying the same thing. Instead of saying ice cream, my two year will ask for a "parfait." Sometimes, she will even say "Merci" instead of "thank you." She has not asked for a pen with a "plume" yet, but I am sure it's only a matter of time. We read this book every night! The drawings have amazing detail (adults can appreciate a lot of the subtle humor in them) and the expressions on the faces of the characters are terrific. I can't imagine any little girl not loving Fancy Nancy!
