marvelous

What a fun way to teach our kids fabulous new words. My daughter is 4 years old and loves to use big words. She feels like a grown up. We love Fancy Nancy!

Fancy Nancy's Favorite Fancy Words

This book is beautiful, there are sparkles on the dust cover, and the artwork is so fabulous. I can't wait to give it to my grand daughter who is three, and loves Fancy Nancy Dearly! I highly recommend this for any little girl, it is so gorgeous.

Ooh la la! Fancy Nancy teaches vocabulary

Instead of a story, this charming Fancy Nancy book is an A-to-Z list of expressive words sure to expand your child's vocabulary. Don't be surprised if you hear your little girl tell you she yearns for a gorgeous -- not understated -- wardrobe, complete with accessories such as a lavender boa, a glamorous tiara and a monogrammed parasol. That one sentence includes 11 of the fancy words in this hardback. Illustrations are always the heart of a Fancy Nancy book, and this one's no exception. Expressive pen and ink over brilliant watercolor, they not only bring Nancy's imaginative world to life, but are also loaded with teeny little details. You, or your child, can look at each page for a long time. Nancy would approve of the cover. It's very fancy, with glossy glittery sparkles on the artwork and the words. When you take off the paper sleeve, the cover has the same artwork but without the sparkles.

Cute Book!

This book is really cute, as are all of the Fancy Nancy books. There is one word for each letter of the alphabet - one letter (word) per page - each word is beautifully illustrated. The book is smaller than the regular Fancy Nancy books, it's a little smaller than a sheet of notebook paper. The words are the usual "fancy" words that Nancy uses. As for learning, I would recommend this for younger (3yr - 6yr) children. For enjoyment -the illustrations are my favorite - this book is great for all ages =)
