Booklist Review
After learning at school that every day is Earth Day, Fancy Nancy takes her lessons home. After espousing rhyming green rules to her family ( Dad, don't waste water. Get clean, but stay green! ), Nancy ramps up the eco-enforcement, and minor mishaps result: Mom loses work, for example, when Nancy turns off the computer to save energy. The story's messages about balancing environmental enthusiasm with tolerance and common sense bring fresh angles to this well-paced installment in the consistently strong early reader series. As usual, the exuberant line-and-wash illustrations amplify the story's sense of messy, creative fun.--Engberg, Gillian Copyright 2010 Booklist
Horn Book Review
In Earth Day, Nancy inadvertently disrupts her home life in an effort to protect the planet. In School, she has trouble coming up with one hundred "imaginative and fancy" things to share on the hundredth day of school. As always with this somewhat rote series, the tempest-in-a-teapot plots will entertain readers, as will the bedazzling Robin Preiss Glasserimpostor art. Glos.
