Sometimes even the very best of friends get upset with each other and need to apologize. Kids will relate to this story of Nancy and Bree repairing their close friendship. When Nancy is invited over to Breeโs house for a special tea party, she has only one thing to say: oui! The girls enjoy a few charming cups of tea before a disaster occurs that sets the two at odds. A party that weas so fun and elegant ends in tears and a huffy au revoir! When Nancy tells her parents what happened, they remind her of the importance of saying sorry. But what if Bree stays mad forever? As a parent notes: "The story deals with the importance of saying sorry, and how to mend relationships that go through hard times. This is such an important lesson for my four-year-old and I highly recommend this book!" Review: Makes a wonderful gift - This is another book for the Great Granddaughter. It's beautiful and will be easy for her to read Review: cutest book for toddlers - this is a precious book! brings me back to my childhood and my kiddos love!

Great for 3 year old niece
Purchased this book for my 3 year old niece to go with the tea set we bought her. She absolutely loved it. Hugged the book when she opened the gift.

Girls LOVE this book
This very quickly became one of my two daughters' favorite books (ages 2 and 4, and very fancy in their own right). I am new to the Fancy Nancy series but I am totally hooked. In this book, Nancy and her neighbor/friend Bree have a doll tea party and wind up fighting over the tea set. The tea set breaks, and both girls are upset. Nancy's parents encourage her to apologize, and all is right in the end. It's a great story about friendship, sharing, and taking responsibility. Like all Fancy Nancy books, it subtly teaches vocabulary - genius! My two year old now knows "au reviour" is goodbye in French, simply from deducing it through the context of the story. Love love love, and will be purchasing the rest of the series! Note - this is a paperback version of the book and very flimsy. Not an issue for the kids, but had I known how much they'd love the story, I would have bought a hardcover that would probably last longer.

Good Book.. Horrible packaging
The book is good โฆ The packaging is another story, it had the book rolled up around some batteries that I had also purchased at the same time โฆ So it had the book rolled/wrinkled.

Not just "Fancy" fluff
I have a policy that I don't let my young children watch or read anything without my approval (which means I have to watch or read it first). I didn't know about these books when my friend first introduced me to them. I thought they were just a bunch of cutesy fluff. I'm glad I gave them a chance. My daughters adore Fancy Nancy! This is actually only the second book we've bought but we want more! This particular book is about two friends learning to share a special tea set and more importantly learning to reconcile and forgive and still be friends after both acted selfishly. What's more, these books teach vocabulary in a fun and memorable way because it's written right into the story (which I'm hoping will encourage their love of words). Of course, all my daughters notice is the cute dress up clothes and tea party, not knowing that they're also learning how to be a good friend.

Fancy Nancy Falls out with her best friend, great for problem solving & emotional intelligence.
My 5 year old loves Fancy Nancy, she identifies strongly because she too is Fancy, she has a little sister, a mum who sometimes wears glasses, my daughter loves tutus and jewellery and she loves discovering the new words that Nancy has to add to her vocabulary. I love Fancy Nancy because amidst the Fabulousness there is an extravaganza of learning opportunities, not just literacy and expanded vocabulary but often emotional intelligence, resilience and problem solving for positive relationships. In this book Fancy Nancy has a falling out with her best friend over a chipped teapot and whilst initially indignant she is justified in her behaviour, she comes to realise with her family's gentle help that it takes two to have an argument, she was in the wrong too and that ultimately she values her friendship more than being right. This is excellent stuff for emotional intelligence and building resilience, falling out with your friend doesn't mean the world is over, but if you aren't prepared to compromise and work together and forgive then the friendship certainly will end. But it does it without preaching or shaming or guilt tripping Nancy, facts are repeated back to her with a fresh perspective and she is encouraged to think on what is important, this is excellent and fits well with childhood developmental and emotional thinking of focusing on the aim to encourage good choices rather than toxic shame a child into socially appropriate behaviour. We love Fancy Nancy and will be adding further to our collection, but this one is a keeper for its gentle approach to allowing a child be responsible for their choices without making them feel bad and to encourage good choices to move forward.

A necessary book for all girls!
I love Fancy Nancy books. Message is fun, yet educational. She overcomes problems which is beneficial to young readers. Teaching young girls about tea parties is an important foundation - I just wish the book was a hardcover or boardbook for durability.
