Fancy Nancy and the Boy from Paris audiobook

Synopsis : There's a new boy in school, and he's from Paris. Nancy cannot believe her luck. But this Parisian may not be as fancy as Nancy expects! Review : Ah! Fancy Nancy has just found the greatest treat in the form of a new boy (Robert) in her class. He's from Paris and she is over the moon with excitement. She wants to make friends quickly and uses all of her best manners in this effort. She practices her French vocabulary with him, shares her favorite French books, sits with him a lunch and invites him over to play. Early readers will pick up a few fancy French words (Ami/Friend, Belle/Beautiful, Bonjour/Hello) as well as some fancy English words(gorgeous,perplexed,tardy and terrified). While Fancy Nancy learns that there is more than one place named Paris, readers will enjoy the colorful illustrations, fun new words, comedy of errors and geographical lessons to boot. Critical Reviews :Dianne Ochiltree from Children's Literature gave this glowing review,"This early reader is guaranteed to fly off the library or classroom shelves!"

You should never be late to school. You never know what you are going to miss. Nancy misses some important information about the Boy from Paris, that she is determined to make her friend. Another cute upper level easy reader.

SummaryFancy Nancy gets to class on Monday and there is a new student in her class. The teacher, Ms. Glass introduces him as Robert and says how he is from Paris. Nancy is so intrigued and can’t wait to learn all about Paris. Paris is one of the places she dreams of but, will she be able stay friends with Robert even when she figures out the truth?ConnectionsThis book reminds me of another Fancy Nancy book I read and I think that is because of the “fancy” words. I think that is great that there is some different vocabulary it can help to expand children's vocabulary and also it challenges them a bit which is always a good thing. In this weeks chapter it talks about diversity and how diversity a can help the minority groups feel more comfortable with themselves or even help others to understand and accept other that are different then themselves. I see a little bit of gender diversity in this book but, not in a bad way. I like how even though Nancy is a girl and Robert is a boy, there still isn't any question when Nancy wants to be his friend. The fact that gender doesn't influence her is a good reminder for younger children.ReactionPersonally I liked the book. I like that is shows different parts of the world and introduces some of the French language. It reminds me of how much I want to travel. Also, children don't know much about anything unless they hear about it or read about it. So, it's always important for them to hear about different places so they realize the diversity in learn to accept differences and okay!

This is now one of my new favorite books. It's such an amazing read for a beginning reader in elementary school. The main character of this book is Fancy Nancy and when she goes to school, her class is introduced to a boy from Paris. She loves Paris and even has a poster of the Eiffel Tower hanging in her room. Because she's late to class, though, she misses hearing that he's from the Paris in Texas. So she goes home to her family and tells them how cool it is having this new friend from Paris and even invites him over one day to play soccer with her. That's when she realizes that he's from Texas after all but she's still happy that she's made a new friend and learned the French word for friend, ami. This book is such a good one for young readers to explore because it does have hard words in it, like tardy, bonjour, perplexed and so on. I love that after each tougher word like that, she says what it's a fancy word for to help the reader understand the new word. I also loved the illustrations and how colorful, frilly and beautiful they were on each page.

This sweet book that's an I Can Read book based off of the popular Fancy Nancy book plays around with how much Nancy loves Paris and how confusing it can be when you don't hear all the information. Since there's a new boy in Nancy's class but she comes to class late so only hears that he's from Paris not Paris, Texas. The story follows as they become friends with the humor coming through as Nancy asks him about Paris. This is a book that does a good job of interjecting more difficult vocabulary into an easy to read story so that readers from 1st grade to 2nd will all find something for them. Also the joyful and colorful illustrations make it a fun book to look through and read along with since there are many details that a young reader can find.

This is only the second of the Fancy Nancy series I have read so I am still trying to get the hang of it so to speak. However this was an enjoyable one. Nancy is making a new friend and jumping to some wrong corrections while she is at it. A level one reader it is perfect for children just learning to read. It also makes a nice bed-time story book as it doesn't take long to read and thus can send the child to bed faster. Not a bad little book when all is said and done.

This was our first "Fancy Nancy" book and won't be our last! Read it to our 2 year old granddaughter and we both enjoyed it. Simple but not so simple it's not a 'story'...it's labeled a Level 1 reading book, but it's a more advanced level 1 book. We really enjoyed reading it. Also it has 'new' words and definition after the word is said throughout the story. Then at the end has a page of the new words. Very nice!

My daughter read this for one of her bedtime stories. We love the "Fancy Nancy" stories. I love these stories for the introduction to French and new words. There's a new boy in Nancy's class whom Nancy overhears is from Paris and she is thrilled because she loves being Frenchy...but Nancy is in for a surprise with her new friend.

I really like this book. This book would be great for a students who are from the United States. This book is also a wonderful vocabulary book, and I love the way Fancy Nancy use French words such as.....Bonjour - "Hello" in FrenchBell - "Beautiful" in French (bell)Ami - "Friend" in French (ah-mee)Gorgeous - beautifulPerplexed - mixed upTardy - lateTerrified - scared
