My kids were disappointed that Nancy would turn off her baby sisters night light. Overall an okay book.

I shared this for Earth Day read aloud. The list of catchy rules was useful.

I didn't get this in time for Earth day but as the title says, every day is Earth Day.

Nancy gets pushy in this story. She learns about Earth day at school and she really wants to help out at home, but she becomes militant. She goes a little too far. Her sister gets scared at night in the dark and after she falls asleep, Nancy turns off her light. The sister wakes up crying at night, or her mom is writing on her computer and gets up for something and Nancy turns off the computer and loses all the moms work.

Still, she has some great tips in here otherwise like:
Less than a mile? then Bike in style
Please take note, Always bring a tote (to the grocery)
In cold weather, keep the room temperature low. It’s better to wear a sweater
Don’t waste water. Get Clean, but stay green.

This is a beginning reader, but the niece didn’t want to read it this time. The nephew didn’t either so I was the only one to read it It was not my favorite Fancy Nancy, but I think it’s important to have out there for kids to get involved. It’s also good to see that you can go to far with good intentions and being green can’t be too pushy.
