Product Description
What could be fancier than Christmas? Presents with elegant wrapping paper, festive decorations, Christmas cookies with sprinkles—and who could forget the tree? After all, there is no such thing as too much tinsel. Ooh la la! This year, Nancy is especially excited about decorating the Christmas tree. She bought a brand-new sparkly tree topper with her own money and has been waiting for Christmas to come. But when things don't turn out the way Nancy planned, will Christmas still be splendiferous? In this merriest of stories from bestselling duo Jane O'Connor and Robin Preiss Glasser, Nancy proves once again that a little fancying up can go a long, festive way!

Fun with Great Vocabulary Words

I purchased this book after hearing about Fancy Nancy from a friend of mine who is a second grade teacher. This is our first Fancy Nancy book and it was a hit with my three year old daughter.
I know some reviewers of Fancy Nancy find her to be pretentious and materialistic because they say she looks down on others who are not as creative and fancy as she is, and they don't want to expose their daughters to that way of thinking. My daughter is by no means fancy or much of a girly-girl, but this book got her excited to prepare for Christmas and two months since we have read it, she still uses some of the words she learned from the book, like "aroma," "heirloom," and "delectable."
Creativity has not been my daughter's forte. She has never been interested in really any arts and crafts (even coloring), but rather working puzzles and building. Since we have read this (and some other Fancy Nancy books), she's been much more interested in making fancy cards for people, decorating for events and festivities, and being creative in general. It all started with Fancy Nancy.
I love that this book has helped expand her vocabulary and creativity. I'll be buying more Fancy Nancy books.

I was so thrilled to be able to get this book for my granddaughter as a last minute surprise Christmas gift. It arrived in plenty of time and the postage was free since I ordered over $25.00 worth of merchandise. I felt like a lucky Santa.
