Fancy Nancy
Fancy Nancy Splendiferous Christmas
(I chose to review this book as it is over 100 degrees outside and a little wishful thinking is happening)
This is another wonderful book written by Jane O'Connor. The magic of Christmas and children wanting to make and give to others is a classic theme. Nancy has a faux pas
(fancy for OOPS!) when her Christamas tree topper is broken. Nancy is devastated, but never fear Grandpa is near and helps her understand the importance of family heirlooms, love support and the idea of giving/sharing.
Makes a great read-aloud for educators and parents, the vocabulary development is incredible. in the O'Connor books. I noticed even my boys like the book but pretend not too and check them out to read to their baby sisters.
