Has anyone heard of these books? I hadn't until my friend Kathy told me about them this past weekend. They are so cute and Maddie just loves them! Maybe it's because Mad is just like Nancy, always wanting to be fancy!!
Little Nancy is a girl that is very fancy, loves using fancy words and dressing up fancy! She thinks her family is boring because no one else wants to be as fancy as her!! It's a great book for little ones and so much fun! Check them out!!!
Here's one of the Reviews they had on Amazon..
PreSchool-K–Young Nancy, like her literary predecessors Eloise and Olivia, is a glamour queen dropped into a boring world–Nobody in my family is fancy at all. They never even ask for sprinkles. She determines to rescue her relatives from their humdrum existence by giving them lessons and accessorizing their mundane wardrobes. A situation that is charming when observed by adults in real life doesnt translate into a successful picture book. Children pretending to be fabulous creatures is appealing when it is innocent and unforced. This book, despite Glassers wonderfully energetic artwork, is ultimately a story told by adults for adults.–Kathleen Whalin, York Public Library, ME

I love childrens books, I collect them.. Hope someday my kids will want my books..
The adult books I like are written my Sandra Dallas. Her stories are so wonderful and always has something about someone making quilts in her book. Tallgrass was good.. My favorite is "The Chilli Queen".
I've seen these at Barnes & Noble... and they also have related products (Fancy Nancy dolls and purses and such). Lately Winnie the Pooh has been the biggest hit for pre-bed reading time. And Tinkerbell (based on the recent DVDs) is also a fav. Oh, and oddly enough she loves books about going to the doctor and dentist. Go figure. I set up a book store (just for fun) on my blog. It's a tab at the top. Right now I have it set up by season, so Halloween books are featured right now. I'm not really pushing it (the bookstore)... it's meant as more of a service to find good books easily for other pre-school parents. It's thru Amazon.com.
p.s. I just saw there is also a Fancy Nancy Christmas book marked down to $12.23 from $17.99. It's here on Amazon Fancy Nancy: Splendiferous Christmas By Jane O'connor. I haven't read any of them, so can't recommend it personally, but the reviews seem quite good.
Thanks so much!!! You know she will want them all!!
