Fancy Nancy: The Show Must Go on - Paperback

by Jane O'Connor (Author), Robin Preiss Glasser (Illustrator)

The talent show is in a week--how will Nancy come up with an act when she's assigned a super-quiet partner?

Nancy and her partner for the talent show are very different. They don't have any of the same talents. Singing and dancing and trapeze swinging are out--will they find a way to bridge their differences and have fun?

Both shy young readers and exuberant (a fancy word for excited!) ones will enjoy this story.

Fancy Nancy: The Show Must Go On is a Level One I Can Read book, which means it's perfect for children learning to sound out words and sentences. Whether shared at home or in a classroom, the short sentences, familiar words, and simple concepts of Level One books support success for children eager to start reading on their own.

This charming early reader delivers reading confidence and a story that celebrates:

• Opposites Attract: Exuberant Nancy and shy Lionel have to work together for the school talent show.
• Creative Problem Solving: When singing and dancing are out, Nancy comes up with a brilliant new plan--a circus act!
• Vocabulary Building Fun: Kids will love learning "fancy words" like rehearse and applause right along with Nancy.
• Stepping into the Spotlight: A gentle story that shows kids how working with a friend can make scary things, like performing on stage, feel fun.
