O'Connor, Jane Fancy Nancy and the Wedding of the Century, illustrated by Robin Preiss Glasser. PICTURE BOOK. Harper, 2014. $17.99. Content: G.
When Nancy hears she will be going to her uncle's wedding, she immediately pictures a glamorous celebration -- one in which she is an ultra-fancy flower girl, of course. But the real wedding is nothing like she'd pictured. Is it possible for a fashionable girl like Nancy to have fun at a nontraditional event like this one?
Nancy is her usual hilarious, enthusiastic self in this story, and the topic of weddings is sure to appeal to many readers. While Nancy is initially disappointed with the wedding's location and theme, it is nice to see her make the best of it and even learn to love it. This book would be enjoyable at any time, but it would make an especially good read (or even gift) for girls who will soon be attending a wedding.
Pre-K, EL -- ESSENTIAL. Reviewer: Caryn
