Book reviewer Emily Jenkins’s March 2006 review of Fancy Nancy in the New York Times stated, “Jane O’Connor, who wrote the ‘Nina, Nina Ballerina’ stories, teams with the illustrator Robin Preiss Glasser in Fancy Nancy. It’s the story of a ball of fire that is always dressed to the nines… The message here is welcoming to all young girls – fanciness (unlike physical beauty) is available to anyone with a can-do spirit – and the writing is adorable.”
The fantastically fabulous Fancy Nancy product line is available in stores in May 2008.
