My daughter has been exposed to her fair share of Disney princesses and classic fairy tales, but when I choose new books for us to read, I try to avoid stories that push stereotypical ideas about what it means to be a girl. So you can imagine the apprehension I felt when my daughter developed a fascination with a character called Fancy Nancy.
