Description:

Beribboned, fuchsia-loving, feather-wearing Nancy absolutely adores being fancy, and wants her very plain family to take part in the pleasure of frills too. After posting a purple-inked sign on the refrigerator advertising fancy classes, Nancy holds court in her bedroom, where she educates them about the many differences between "plain" and "fancy." Soon, covered in exciting accessories, everyone heads out to a fabulous dinner that proves familial love is stronger than anything, even without the baubles and style. With bright, free-flowing watercolor and pen-and-ink illustrations.

    • This is the hardback edition of Fancy Nancy.

      Local Bookstore was out of the hardback edition. Overstock was cheaper. I would definitely buy books again from Overstock.The book arrived in perfect condition. It matched a quilt I had made. I would definitely shop from Overstock again.

      • How did the image on site compare with the actual product? Excellent
      • How accurate was the on site description of the product? Good
      • Please tell us about the quality of the product. Excellent, not any bent corners since it is a hard back.

    • Fancy Nancy

      Love the book. The Book Jacket was a little dirty, but the book itself was in good shape.

      Our daughters (age 5 and 2 1/2) LOVE this series! You can't find this book cheaper and it is hardcover.

    • Very Cute

      If you have a little girl that loves everything with extra glitter and glam then this is a perfect book for her. It has a great message about love really being what's important in the end!

    • Delightful Book

      This charming book has become my six year old granddaughter's favorite! Any little girl who loves to play dress up will love it ... great illustrations and story-line ... and a wonderful "moral to the story."

  • With exuberance, elan and lots of heart, O'Connor (the Nina, Nina Ballerina books) and Glasser (A Is for Abigail) prove that the bosom of the family has ample room for even the most outr? individualist. Channeling the spirits of Grace Kelly and Audrey Hepburn-whose pictures adorn her extravagantly decorated room-Nancy tries to make the world a more flamboyant place, starting with her decidedly down-to-earth family ("They never even ask for sprinkles," she notes as they exit an ice cream parlor). She offers her parents and little sister a free tutorial in all things fancy (yellow is plain, gold is fancy), which they gamely attend, and they even agree to go to a restaurant wearing Nancy-orchestrated frou-frou (Mom's ensemble includes Christmas ornament earrings and a feather boa). But when Nancy commits a faux pas of major proportions (she trips with a tray full of ice cream) she comes to realize that her family's love for her is as bottomless as her collection of hair accessories. O'Connor captures Nancy's dramatic precociousness without making her sound like a snoot ("My favorite color is fuchsia. That's a fancy way of saying purple"); she comes across as a genuinely creative spirit rather than an imperious fashionista. Glasser's pictures brim with comic detail and sparkle like a bauble from Tiffany. Like O'Connor, she empathizes with Nancy's over-the-top sensibility, yet gently grounds the heroine in the steady (if bemused) embrace of her family. Ages 4-7. (Jan.) (c) Copyright PWxyz, LLC.
