“LOVE IT! A chronicle of Nancy's favorite fancy words!”

If you've never been introduced to Fancy Nancy, you don't know what you're missing! Nancy, besides being fancy, loves glitzy clothing, the outstanding Mrs. DeVine, her understated (see below) family, and anything and everything French!
Fancy Nancy is a xenophile (a person who loves foreign people and foreign things). She wishes she had a middle name, so that her monogram (your initials on something to show it's yours) would have three letters. She wishes she could go on an excursion (a special trip) to Paris, which she yearns for (wants really badly).
All in all, although her mother dresses in an understated (plain) wardrobe (collection of clothes), she knows that not everyone can be a Queen (a woman who rules over a kingdom).
What she does know, though, is that by reading this book, your vocabulary (all the words you know), will be greatly improved!
FANCY NANCY'S FAVORITE FANCY WORDS is a wonderful addition to the series, and the illustrations by Robin Preiss Glasser are, as always, just perfect for the story. This one is a keeper, especially for young girls who wear tiaras (a crown for a princess) and understand all about accessories (fancy extra stuff).”
“Cute. Nice pictures.”

Yes | No“Although I was more of a tomboy/nerd myself, I have a soft spot for Fancy Nancy and her real-life compatriots. They're so over the top! Basically, it comes down to the fact that diva like behavior that would be obnoxious in anyone else is cute in small children. Anyhoo, Fancy Nancy's fancy thesaurus here will appeal to all her fancy fans.”
