(3) K-3 Illustrated by Robin Preiss Glasser. Nancy is devastated when her younger sister gives her doll, Marabelle, a "tattoo" with permanent marker. To lift Nancy's spirits, her mom takes her and Marabelle to the "History Doll Gala," where the tattoo comes in handy. This entry in the Fancy Nancy franchise is strong: the plotting is nimble, and beneath the glitter and curlicues are glimpses of realistic girls.
