Publisher's Summary:
Grand opening!
Welcome to Fancy Nancy's Fabulous Fashion Boutique! Here you can find the fanciest almost-new outfits, accessories, jewelry, and lots more. There's even a necklace with real rhinestones for sale. Ooh la la!
The fashion boutique is a huge success, but it's also Nancy's little sister's birthday. And when it starts to rain, her birthday party might be ruined! Nancy knows she has to come up with an idea - a brilliant one - and fast.
In this très chic story from bestselling duo Jane O'Connor and Robin Preiss Glasser, Nancy shows once again that sometimes all you need is a little improvising to turn a fiasco into something fancy.
Members Reviews:
I love hearing my 2
My daughter loves this series--it's definitely influenced her vocabulary. I love hearing my 2.5 year old use words like "persuade," and "rhinestone." This book in particular advocates for earning the objects of your desire, and being patient and resilient when you hit that inevitable speed bump.
Amazon sent Autographed Copy
Love these book, my daughter can't get enough of them. And it's such a cute way to teach kids big words. Some how Amazon sent me an autographed copy of this book which was such a pleasant surprise
Not My Daughter's Favorite
My daughter, Nancy, remains a big fan of the Fancy Nancy series and, I must say, I enjoy reading them to her. As the oeuvre continues to grow, however, some books seem to rise to the top of the reading list while others falter. My Nancy's favorite is clearly the Posh Puppy followed closely by the original book and Bonjour Butterfly. This one does not seem likely to rise into the top three.
Of course, there's nothing wrong with the story which centers on Nancy's sister's birthday. Nancy uses nearly all her money to buy her sister a present and then opens a yard sale style boutique to raise money to buy herself something. It goes awry when her sister wants as her birthday present a necklace Nancy sells. Being a good sister, Nancy gets the necklace back and gives it as a present, as well as saves the day when rain threatens to spoil the party.
In the end, however, this story is just a bit flat. The artwork is still fantastic and it's pleasant enough, but it seems to lack the energy and nice, subtle moral of the other books. (In fact, I'm not sure I like the fact that Nancy ends up with her desire at the end.) Other than the big reveal of Nancy's sister's name--which I won't give away here--there's not a lot that's as memorable as Nancy's slip at the ice cream parlor, Jewel "gak"ing in Nancy's dress, or the butterfly garden in the other books.
Still, time will tell. Maybe the story will grow on my daughter and me, as some of the other books have done. I'm certainly happy to have it on the shelf.
Another Fun "Fancy Nancy" Book
What else can be said about another one of wonderful "Fancy Nancy" books? If your children love "Fancy Nancy", they will love this book. We have several, and this one adds to the collection. The stories are fun and beautifully illustrated. My girls love to look at the illustrations and often pick one of these books for a bedtime story.
