Overview

Fancy Nancy is back! And when her family decides to get a dog, she's certain she can be fancier than ever. After all, a papillon—a small, delicate, fluffy dog—is the ultimate accessory. But her family wants a large, plain dog. How unglamorous!

With Fancy Nancy's trademark humor and warmth, Nancy discovers that real fanciness does not depend simply on appearance but more on a genuine joie de vivre, which is a fancy phrase for having lots of fun.

Editorial Reviews

Publishers Weekly

Fancy Nancy fans will loudly cheer her return and will be happy to discover that she has not lost a lick of her joie de vivre—or her glitter and glam. "I am ecstatic. (That's a fancy word for happy)," she announces, explaining that her family is getting a puppy, "a real one," she adds, as Glasser creates a comical scene of Nancy drafting her sister into the role of pretend-pooch (drawing on a noise with indelible marker). Nancy initially hopes for a dog like Jewel, the papillon that belongs to her elegant neighbor. But Nancy's practical parents think this breed is too small and delicate, and instead suggest hardier dogs; "I shake my head. Too big. Too brown. Too plain. Sometimes it's hard being the only fancy person in the family." Yet when she dog-sits for Jewel, she discovers that the prim and proper pooch does not enjoy romping or fetching like Nancy's friends' dogs. She realizes that Jewel's breed is not the perfect kind for her family. Her parents' idea to visit an animal shelter, however, brings about the perfect solution. Nancy spies spirited and smart Frenchy ("a La Salle spaniel," according to her father), who turns out to be just what the family needs. Glasser's fittingly fancy flourishes and abundant humor once again capture this young heroine's exuberant personality and delightfully exaggerated facial expressions. Author and artist make a sparkling encore performance. Ages 4-7. (Apr.)

From The Critics
Fancy Nancy is back and she is ecstatic—her family is going to get a real dog. Of course, Nancy wants a fancy dog, setting her sights on a papillon like her neighbor's pampered pooch. Nancy's unfancy family has other ideas. Dad says that papillons are small dogs that stay indoors and mom says that they are too delicate. Then they discover that the neighbor needs a puppy sitter. Nancy to the rescue. The tiny papillon is no fun at all. It will not jump into the plastic swimming pool; it will not play fetch; and it gets sick all over Nancy's elegant dress after a jarring ride in a wagon. Nancy is devastated with disappointment until her parents take her to an animal shelter and she discovers Frenchy. Frenchy is playful, smart, and cuddly. She is the perfect dog for Nancy's family. The detailed pastel illustrations extend the story showing Nancy's passion for all things posh. Nancy's whimsical outfits and her use of high faulutin' words are a delight. A fun read aloud.

    Mom of almost 4yr old

    This is a great story. My daughter enjoys reading it because it is colorful and fun. She loves that the little girl gets so FANCY. I love reading this and FANCY NANCY for several reasons. The artistry is well done and so colorful. The storyline is great and both stories are cute thorughout and end with a purpose. For example, Fancy Nancy ends with telling you that there is no fancy way of saying 'I love you.' These books are well worth the money and the time spent reading with your children.

    This was a great book for my 3 kids. They loved the antics and the colorful words that are used throughout this book. It is hard for me to find books that they like, and I was happy to order this along with another great book called Nose Pickin'. I recommend these great books for those of you with kids!

    Fancy Nancy is Every Little Girl!

    She is adorable and engaging and quirky and precocious. Nancy's parents are awesome - they go along with her fantasy and are willing to participate and support her development. We all learn new and fancy words and it is just plain FUN!

    Loved this sweet book

    My daughter is a huge Fancy Nancy fan. This book was a reward for her report card grades(In our house good grades are rewarded with good books). The illustrations are fun and the story is cute. The pictures are bright and my little girl loves being fancy. Fancy Nancy will be a main stay with our family for years to come.

    Fabulous Book

    This book (and Fancy Nancy)is a reading staple for both of my girls ages 3 and 18 months. I love that the character is relatable yet still challenging due to the vocabulary and introduction to basic French. C'est tres bien! Looking forward to the next one.

    Don't Buy A Family Pet Until You Read This

    Fancy Nancy illustrates the attitude of some people when they select a dog. Concerned more about cuteness than what is good for them. Every family member should read this book before buying a dog. Perhaps this would eliminate the dog being discarded when expectations are dampened.
