In Fancy Nancy and the Posh Puppy (ages 4-7) by Jane O�Connor, illustrated by Robin Preiss Glasser, Nancy earnestly tries to persuade one and all that the new family dog should indeed be...fancy, in her unending quest for fanciness. Puppy-sitting for a rather fancy dog, Nancy is sure she can persuade everyone to see it her way...or perhaps not. With a joie de vivre and charming illustrations Nancy is not only fancy, but she is full of hea t.

Fancy Nancy is back! And when her family decides to get a dog, she's certain she can be fancier than ever. After all, a papillon—a small, delicate, fluffy dog—is the ultimate accessory. But her family wants a large, plain dog. How unglamorous!

With Fancy Nancy's trademark humor and warmth, Nancy discovers that real fanciness does not depend simply on appearance but more on a genuine joie de vivre, which is a fancy phrase for having lots of fun.

Jane O'Connor is the author of more than thirty books for children, including the Nina, Nina Ballerina stories, illustrated by DyAnne DiSalvo, and the Fancy Nancy picture book series. Ms. O'Connor lives with her family in ever-posh New York City.
