Besties for eternity—that’s fancy for forever and ever!

For Nancy, a long weekend means fun, fun, and more fun with her best friend, Bree. But, alas! Bree will be away visiting her grandmother, leaving Nancy forlorn—that’s a fancy way of saying sad and lonely.

Then, at the park, Nancy meets Lily, who is older, fearless, and—ooh la la!—from Paris! Nancy can hardly believe such a glamorous girl wants to be friends. They spend the weekend together, and everything seems parfait (French for perfect)….at least until Bree returns. What will Nancy do?! Will she have room in her heart for two true friends?

Join us as illustrator Robin Preiss Glasser reads from this brand-new Fancy Nancy story—the 90th in the series!—and leads us in a fun activity.
