Sand Castles and Sand Palaces by Jane O'Connor -- ADVISABLE

O'Connor, Jane Sand Castles and Sand Palaces (Fancy Nancy), illustrated by Robin Preiss Glasser and Carolyn Bracken. PICTURE BOOK. Harper Festival, 2014. $4.99. Content: G.

Fancy Nancy goes to the beach in this delightful picture book. She spends the day frolicking in the waves, enjoying cool snacks, and making sand palaces. Nancy is as amusing as always, and her attitude is admirable, especially when the waves knock over her castle. The vocabulary lessons add a nice touch as well. Contains a sheet of beach-themed stickers.

Pre-K, EL -- ADVISABLE. Reviewer: Caryn
