Good How To for kids.

Has a good amount of kid friendly ideas and recipes for having all kinds of Tea Parties. It's not a traditional story so much as a Tea Party How To; which is exactly what I hoped for. There are recipe cards at the back of the book as well.

My daughter flips through and picks out what she wants to make for our next tea party.

Love Fancy Nancy

Love Fancy Nancy, love this book. Lots of ideas on how to throw a tea party for your friends. I am giving these as party favors to my daughter's tea party birthday. Forget the silly dollar store stuff, I do one nice book or activity book these days.

A very special worthy addition to a child’s collection. Beautifully done.

A beautiful book to add to your children’s collection. My 6 year-old loves all of the Fancy Nancy books; and I love the physical quality that makes it a keepsake collectible. I purchased this one for her birthday, which was a tea party! It gave us a lot of ideas for having additional memorable tea parties for years to come. She was inspired the very first time we opened the book the day it arrived at our doorstep.

good for kids, not good for grown-ups

If you're a mom buying the book for yourself so you can get party ideas, pass on this one. You can get all the Fancy Nancy party ideas you want online - especially searching by blogs. Tons of moms have thrown great parties & have all the details listed on their blogs. So from an adult standpoint the book was a pretty big letdown & I'm really glad I didn't pre-order it and instead stood & read it at the bookstore.

If you have a daughter who can already read and enjoys tea parties & crafts I think it should be a great book. I think I would have enjoyed it when I was a young girl. I loved to plan things and on a children's level the book has some cute ideas (as an adult you've probably seen them all or most all). The book was definitely written for children (which I did not know before I read it).

We adore Fancy Nancy

We got a small Fancy Nancy puzzle for two of our granddaughters years ago, great for learning how to solve puzzles, and several of the books. This year, another granddaughter got a Fancy Nancy tea party book with a tea party set. She's over the moon and asked to watch the tea party movie on Disney for kids soon after. High quality books, artwork, and writing.

Nice book for anyone looking for something different and fancy...

My daughter loves this book and the rest of the series. We got it for her for her birthday after I noticed she always checked it out at the library every time we went. It is definitely different from many other books she has and now she is starting to enter what I like to call the next chapter in her book of life.
