Fancy Nancy: The Dazzling Book Report
by Jane O'Connor
The book is mostly about Fancy Nancy writing a book report. Nancy said "Monday is my favorite day." That's because Monday is Library Day. Nancy selects a book. It's called Sacajawea. Then she has to do a book report. After dinner her dad reads the book. The next day mom takes Nancy to the art store. Nancy said "I am going to make the cover." Finally the school day is here, but she has only two sentences for her report. She spent too much time on the cover. So the teacher just lets her tell the class about the book. She does great.
