What parents need to know

Parents need to know that this is the second of the Fancy Nancy books. There's nothing of concern in this story of a young girl who learns the difference between being just fancy and being unique, and the value of each.

Bought this book for my daughter shortly after it came out since she loved the 1st book so much. I think the story is wonderful and just as good as hte first book.

I thought this book was a a miraculous book for youngsters. In a way they can strengthen their vocabulary while enjoying fun. This book should be read with an adult for consultation with new words.

Great alternative to "princess" worship
When I first saw the Fancy Nancy merchandise I was not impressed - too much stuff! But then I actually read the books, and they won my heart. Far from being materialistic, Nancy is a creative kid who fashions "fancification" from everyday objects, is curious and thoughtful, and loves new ideas and new words. All in all, a great role model for my princess-obsessed daughter (who now looooooves Nancy). We will never move to a palace, but we did decorate her room "Fancy Nancy style" with garlands of tinsel from our tree and the bows that came on our Christmas presents!
