What else can best signify the beauty of romance on Valentine's Day--- a wedding! As Fancy Nancy our favorite little heroine with the larger than life personality, soon finds out in this new tale from the award-winning duo of author Jane O'Connor and illustrator Robin Preiss Glasser called
Fancy Nancy and the Wedding of the Century. Fancy Nancy Clancy envisions a truly exquisite, glorious occasion for the upcoming nuptials of her cousin Cal and his fiancee Dawn (complete with dreams of a reception at a fancy hotel by the water). But, when her parents tell her that Cal and Dawn are having a "non-traditional' ceremony, Fancy Nancy's dreams quickly implode. Can a wedding in a cabin by the lake deep in the wild woods be a "fancy' wedding after all?
I greatly appreciated the message that Fancy Nancy learns in the end of this pleasant tale, that sometimes, the most simplest of ceremonies can truly be the most lovely, resplendent and memorable occasions.
