How can you not love Fancy Nancy Clancy? Impossible! Or at least, that's what I thought...until I asked my daughter if my granddaughter had any Fancy Nancy books. Yup, she does. And she won't let her mother read them to her. Doesn't like them. Hmmmmm......
Well, anyways.....in this one, follow her and her family as they prepare for Christmas – from decorating the outside of the house and yard, to finding the perfect tree, to making cookies, wrapping gifts, singing carols, and creating a new family heirloom.
I just love the way that Jane O’Connor introduces – and explains – cool words. In this story we have aroma, compromise, heirloom and delectable. Also caroling, pleading, devastated, and compromise.
Sparkly cover. Cheerful, ”fancy”… and busy … illustrations with lots of detail to explore. Very cool font.
