Fancy Nancy: My Family History

The Horn Book

While working on a report about her great-grandparents, Nancy liberally embellishes the truth. She must then right her wrong before her grandfather finds out. Though there's some heavy-handedness, Nancy's fans will giggle as her imagination carries her--and her whole family history--away. Curlicue-heavy pictures illustrate Nancy's story. "Fancy Words" (ancestors, exaggerate) are defined in an appended glossary. (c) Copyright 2011. The Horn Book, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Media Source, Inc. No redistribution permitted.
