Fancy Nancy Book is Terrific
Thanks so much. The book is in great condition, it arrived the day before I had to drive out of state to take it to my granddaughter and she just loves it.

Fun book for early readers
Our granddaughter loves this book and what is even better - she loves to read it to us! Nancy is adorable and she typical of a young girl.

Fancy Nancy's bus trip- better title
My daughter loves the Fancy Nancy books. I was disappointed with this one however. I expected a story about the artwork Nancy saw at the museum. Instead it is more about her getting sick on the bus trip. I would suggest skipping this one...

Another cute Fancy Nancy story
I was looking for some early reader books for my daughter, and was happy to find an I Can Read book featuring one of her favorite characters, Fancy Nancy. We love the original Fancy Nancy book, as well as the one about the Posh Puppy. This book, Fancy Nancy at the Museum, isn't as good as a story as the other ones we have read. It does fit the bill as an I Can Read book, and has, of course, the wonderful illustrations. I just didn't care for the story as much, and I don't think my daughter did either.

I bought this for my 4yr old, obviously for me to read to her. We love Fancy Nancy and its another fun book to add to our collection.

Fancy Nancy shines again
Nancy shines through with the help of her teacher. For an "I Can Read" book, this is nice. It is a complete story and flows well for an early reader---not full of unknown names of characters, etc...It is also a nice introduction to a few art-related terms.

Wonderful Books
My great niece loves Fancy Nancy and so do I. She s learning French from reading and rereading the books.

Sick Stomach and On to the Museum
I have to admit, I was thrilled to see Fancy Nancy becoming part of the "I Can Read!" series. With a daughter named Nancy, I have been collecting all things Fancy Nancy. As she will soon be getting old enough to learn to read, these books will be great. She already loves Robin Preiss Glasser's art and now she will be able to have books she will be able to read early on.

The story here is pretty much what you'd expect from the title. Fancy Nancy goes with her class on a trip to a museum where she sees a lot of great art and is inspired to paint. As always, I love the way Ms. O'Connor is able to use Nancy's love of fancy words to stretch the vocabulary of young readers.

I also love the little lessons she tries to get across in these books. In this case, Nancy overeats and gets sick on the bus ride. Despite her embarrassment and with the help of her teacher, she carries on. I have to admit, vomiting is not one of my favorite subjects to come across in a book for children, but that doesn't change the fact that it's part of life.

When it comes right down to it, I became aware of these books because of my daughter's name but I've continued to follow them because they are simply good books. I continue to be very impressed.

title is a bit misleading
Okay, I love fancy nancy and have her other books, so I was excited when I saw these easy readers. It has the same charm and great illustrations as the other books and over-all I liked it (as will the preschoolers where I work). The only problem I had with it, was Nancy only spends about three pages actually in the museum. Most of the other pages are spent meeting at school, driving on the bus, getting sick on the bus, eating lunch by the bus....etc. I was hoping to have more of her interacting with the items at the museum itself. Still, overall it was worth it. You can't beat this little girl for charm and blythe determination.
