If you are a fan of any of the books, you will love to add this to your collection! I own all the hardcover books (how can I not? my name is Nancy!) and this one just arrived this morning. The colors, illustrations and dust jacket are beautiful, as usual. I was a little curious about the title, but it ends up being one of (if not my most) favorite of the whole series. Nancy is her usual self and obsessed with her current life situation -- dance class -- and is thrilled that they will be performing a ballet. She is ready to be the star, but her and her friend Bree end up being supporting roles (a tree and an oyster). They are sad, but decide to be happy about it and enjoy fancy-fying their roles. It ends up Bree gets to be a Mermaid and I am just in love with how Nancy decides to deal with the situation. It is a great story of friendship and love that I want to read to my daughter over and over! You'll love it, I 100% promise!
My daughter received this book as a gift for her 3rd birthday and she LOVES it! When I saw how many pages & words were in the book, I was concerned that my just-turned-3-year-old would not have the attention span to sit through it, but she did and hung on to every word!The book teaches new vocabulary and also has a great life lesson weaved in. This is one of our favorite books now and I plan to buy more Fancy Nancy books as a result.
Fancy Nancy and her friends are back. In this installment Nancy and her dance class are preforming a mermaid ballet. Nancy is not proud of the role that she is given. Her friends and family teach her that there are no small parts! She learns the meaning of teamwork!The cover caught my girls, ages 5 and 7, eyes right away! It's full of sparkly glitter ! If you are a Fancy Nancy fan this book is a must read!
With a young daughter named Nancy, we obviously have a lot of Fancy Nancy titles on the shelf. All of them are good, but some of them are better than others. This newest one is one of the better ones.This time around, I particularly like the lesson it teaches. It's an obvious one, but it fits well in the story that is told. Here, Nancy becomes jealous when her best friend, Bree, gets a part in the ballet recital that Nancy really wants. Along the way, we get to see Nancy's love of ballet and everything fancy (of course).In the end, as expected, everything works out well. Nancy and Bree are friends forever and there is a celebratory dinner at the King's Crown. It's much of what's best in a Fancy Nancy story.
My 6 year old daughter is a HUGE Fancy Nancy fan, ever since she received her first Fancy Nancy book as a gift at the age of 2. Now we have over a dozen Fancy Nancy books, and every time she finds a new one, she has to have it! LOL This story, "Fancy Nancy and the Mermaid Ballet" is a particular favorite of my daughter's because she loves ballet. I have to confess that, I too enjoy the Fancy Nancy stories. This one encompasses a lesson for the little ones on how to deal with disappointment. It came in quite handy when my daughter suffered her first real disappointment this month when she didn't get a part in her school play, while her two best friends did. I reminded her of this FN story, and we re-read it together (she felt much better after we were done.) I highly recommend this book, and indeed all the Fancy Nancy books. The story is fresh, enjoyable, and includes a life lesson for the little ones (one even us adults can benefit from), plus it is beautifully illustrated!
Great book. We've had it a month and I've read it more times than I can stand to admit. My daughter loves Fancy Nancy, she loves Mermaids, and she loves Ballet. What's not to like.- Happy Dad
My five-year old is a fancy girl herself, and we have all the books. This has to be one of the best yet. And there is a line in here that makes us laugh every time, one you would never expect Nancy to utter. "Say what?" You won't be disappointed. It also teaches a good lesson about jealousy and friendship, and the cover is simply beautiful!
My Niece is taking ballet classes. So, when I saw this book on online I said, "what does the pictures look like?" When I found out and read only a fraction of the story - I knew this is the story for my niece. It turns out my niece was excited as well.
