she is still the most fancy

Fancy Nancy

Jane O'connor

HarperCollins, 2005

Cute, fun story for little girls
My daughter and I discovered Fancy Nancy at the library when we checked out Fancy Nancy & the Posh Puppy. She was enchanted with Fancy Nancy, and we were tickled when she began using some of Nancy's fancy words like "plume". So, I purchased the original Fancy Nancy ...

Jane O'Connor

"Posh Puppy" -- what is a posh puppy?

Fancy Nancy and the Boy from Paris (I Can Read Book 1)

Jane O'connor

HarperTrophy, 2008

Marvelous (fancy for great) & hilarious (fancy for so funny)!
Really enjoyed this one, possibly the best of Nancy for us (--this is our third Nancy-book). I was surprised to find the Nancy stories so enjoyable. Was pleasantly surprised too to find this as a reader, and it has great story. My girls both like these (& this one), ...

Henri Matisse: Drawing with Scissors: Drawing with Scissors (Smart About Art)

Jane O'Connor

Grosset & Dunlap, 2002

Excellent concept, well executed
An amusing introduction to the artist Matisse that I highly recommend. Written as though it's an 8-yr-old's school report, it is accessible and very informative. It includes reproductions of Matisse art and biographical information. Loved it. And it was useful as a ...

Nina, Nina Ballerina (All Aboard Reading)

Jane O'Connor

Grosset & Dunlap, 1993

One of my 3yo daughter's favorite books!
By coincidence, my daughter was taking this book everywhere when she broke her own arm. She'd learned to read it about 2 weeks before her own fall in the park (just like Nina without the ballet moves!). Ms. O'Connor and Ms. Disalvo-Ryan include enough small incidental ...

Molly the Brave and Me (Step-Into-Reading, Step 3)

Jane O'Connor

Random House Books for Young Readers, 1990

A very exciting book
Molly and her best friend, Beth, always had fun and excitement. Molly had Beth to come over to her house and spend the night. That night when Beth went to bed, she had an awful, scary dream. You have to read this book to find out what kind of adventures they had ...

Dangerous Admissions: Secrets of a Closet Sleuth

Jane O'connor

Avon A, 2007

Clever, fast-paced, and funny
This book kept me reading far too late one night, but I couldn't stop. The humor is dead-on, the pace is brisk, and O'Connor's insights into the publishing industry and the world of prep schools lend a welcome authenticity. I can guess the resolution of the mystery ...

Fancy Nancy's Glamorous Gift: original Fancy Nancy book with feather boa

Jane O'connor

HarperFestival, 2007

Great book, poorly constructed items
The book is awesome! My daughter loves the story because she herself is FANCY. But the boa and crown are poorly constructed and really not worth the extra cost. Just buy the book and then you can supplement the story with a boa and crown of your choice!

The Emperor's Silent Army: Terracotta Warriors of Ancient China

Jane O'Connor

Viking Juvenile, 2002

Hidden arrows, Poisoned King, and Buried Treasure!
Rich with exciting historical details, The Emperor's Silent Army: Terracotta Warriors of Ancient China by Jane O'Connor offers a well-researched book that tantalizes the reader with tales of a poisoned King, a camouflaged dead body, and a booby-trapped tomb. The ...

Sir Small and the Dragonfly (Step-Into-Reading, Step 2)

Jane O'Connor

Random House Books for Young Readers, 1988

A Wonderful starter book!
Though the book is listed as being for ages 4-8, we bought the book for my then 2-year-old son and it quickly became his favorite bedtime book. The story is adorable, as are the illustrations - and it's overriding message that it's okay to be different and that it's ...
