Nancy Clancy learns about starting a business in the seventh chapter book in the Nancy Clancy chapter book series by New York Times bestselling team Jane O’Connor and Robin Preiss Glasser!
At first, Nancy Clancy thinks how great it would be to be wealthy—that’s elegant for rich. With the help of her best friend, Bree, she sets out to make a fortune one way or another.
But when things don’t go as planned, Nancy learns something even more valuable—some of the best things in life are free.
Her quest for a fortune is filled with big ideas and even bigger messes.
- Entrepreneurship for Kids: From homemade skin cream to sparkly "Bun Crowns," follow Nancy and Bree as they brainstorm, create, and sell their own products!
- Learning About Money: Discover the basics of business, from the thrill of a first sale to the surprise of realizing expenses can eat up all your profits.
- A Sweet Friendship Story: Through business flops and financial frustrations, best friends Nancy and Bree stick together and learn what’s truly valuable.
- Fancy Words Galore: Expand your vocabulary with Nancy, who knows that "wealthy" is just an elegant way of saying rich and "inquisitive" is a fancy word for nosy!
Jane O'Connor
Jane O’Connor was born and raised in the fabulous metropolis of New York City. That’s where she still lives with her husband, Jim, although both their grown sons did something unfathomable (that means impossible to understand). They moved to the West Coast! Besides writing the Fancy Nancy series and other books for children, Jane spent her whole career as an editor at major publishing houses. Recently retired, she finds herself with something she never had before—free time to do whatever she pleases.
