I thought this book was a a miraculous book for youngsters. In a way they can strengthen their vocabulary while enjoying fun. This book should be read with an adult for consultation with new words.

About Fancy Nancy and the Posh Puppy
Parents need to know that this is the second of the Fancy Nancy books. There's nothing of concern in this story of a young girl who learns the difference between being just fancy and being unique, and the value of each.
