Been to Fancy Nancy? Well, if you are a 4-6 year old girl, you surely know who she is. Nancy, the creative genius of author Jane O’Connor, is a young girl who loves everything elegant. The original story book in the series, aptly titled “Fancy Nancy,” tells the story of Nancy, a little girl with curly auburn hair who loves to talk using fancy French words, dresses up in elegant clothes and loves just about anything else. Nancy’s favorite doll is also tres fancy: the name of her doll, Marabelle, is short for Marabelle Lavinia Chandelier. Unfortunately, the rest of Nancy’s family is very simple. Nancy even goes as far as giving her family lessons on the differences between plain and fantasy. Glasses … simple, sunglasses … extravagant! Nancy’s signature attire is a cow print leotard paired with a poodle skirt, fairy wings, cat-eye sunglasses, leg warmers, ballet slippers and a tiara. The unique and whimsical illustrations, by Robin Preiss Glasser, add to the delightful nature of these books.
In subsequent picture books in the Fancy Nancy series, including “Bonjour Butterfly”, “Posh Puppy” and “Explorer Extraordinaire”, you meet Nancy’s dog, Frenchy, and her best friend Bree.
Jane O’Connor’s inspiration for all of her books, including the Fancy Nancy series, comes from her own life experiences or those of her family. Every Sunday afternoon, when Jane was about 4 or 5 years old, her grandmother and her great aunts came to visit Jane and her family. “As soon as I heard the doorbell,” says Jane, “I ran to my room, jumped into my pink tutu, wrapped myself in a red satin cloak, and came out to greet my guests in a couple of my mother’s clothes. with high heels. I was not a girl-girl, but I felt it was important to look elegant for the company. ” O’Connor was Fancy Jane long before she wrote Fancy Nancy.
What does it mean to be imaginative for Nancy? It means toothpicks curled up in sandwiches, eating with your pinky up, lace-trimmed socks while you play football, and DIY canopies above her bed.
Jane O’Connor’s Fancy Nancy hysteria has blossomed in a growing series of picture books, I can read books, as well as Fancy Nancy gifts and items such as dolls, doll clothes, puzzles, games, birthday party supplies, bedroom accessories and of course Fancy Nancy dress up dresses for little girls. You can find a Fancy Nancy gift for all occasions.
