Product Description from Amazon: Nancy prepares an elegant Easter affair in this fancy new lift-the-flap book! Throwing a fabulous and fancy Easter party is a very big job-and Nancy and Bree are in charge of decorating!  This book includes thirteen flaps that open to reveal hidden surprises that will delight all festive Fancy Nancy fans!

Mary’s Review:  This delightful little flip-the-flap book is colorful and has surprises behind each flap.  My granddaughters had me read it to them over and over just so they could open the flaps.  They had as much fun hunting for decorations for the Easter party as did Nancy and her best friend Bree.  Your child will even learn a few words of French.  Fancy Nancy loves speaking French.  My one year old granddaughter loves the flaps and trying to find them on each page.


I recommend this book for ages 3-6.
