My daughter, who is almost 4, discovered tea parties last year because her Nana has them with her friends. Then she had to have a private tea party with Nana, and likes to pretend to serve tea ever day. This book captures the spirit and essence of those tea parties - a fancy event to be shared by friends. Fancy Nancy does an amazing job of showing us how to have a tea party and use all the proper and fancy terms for such parties. This book will delight, educate and entertain time and time again. This book is wonderfully written and as always in the Fancy Nancy Series incredibly illustrated. The book also includes four fancy Nancy recipe cards that can be pulled out so your child can start collecting her (or his) own recipes.

Done in true "Fancy Nancy" style, readers are taught all about tea parties -- from etiquette to what to wear to snacks and games, it's all here. As always great illustrations and sure to be a hit with little girls. At a recent Scholastic book fair held where I work, we were sent a couple copies of this book and all were sold within minutes of opening. Definitely one to buy.
