Description

This sparkling New York Times bestselling picture book from Victoria and Elizabeth Kann celebrates all things pink while showing readers that being yourself is the best of all.

Pinkalicious loves all things pink. From fairy dresses to cotton candy to bubblegum. Most importantly she loves eating pink cupcakes. Mommy and Daddy warn her not to eat too many, but Pinkalicious can’t help herself. They’re just too good! But when Pinkalicious eats one too many, she turns pink herself! What will she do?

Pinkalicious is the first picture book starring Pinkalicious and her family. She stars in six more picture books—Purplicious, Goldilicious, Silverlicious, Emeraldalicious, Aqualicious, and Rubylicious—as well as I Can Reads, doodle books, and more!

User’s Reviews

From School Library Journal PreSchool-Grade 2–Pinkalicious eats so many pink cupcakes that she wakes up the next morning with pink skin and hair. The color just won’t wash off, and the doctor diagnoses her with Pinkititis and tells her to eat green food to get better. Still, when her parents aren’t looking, she sneaks just one more treat–and turns red. Startled, she starts to choke down her veggies and finally returns to normal. When everything seems okay, Daddy asks what happened to the other cupcakes, and Pinkalicious’s little brother bounds into the room with one in hand, happily showing off his new pink skin. The final Pink-a-boo! is sure to garner smiles. The computer-generated collage pictures are bold and appealing and will draw readers into the story. Although the main character is a bit obnoxious, children will be amused by her obsession with pink sweets. Reminiscent of David Shannon’s A Bad Case of Stripes (Scholastic, 1998), Kann’s lighter confection is a pink lover’s dream come true.–Erlene Bishop Killeen, Fox Prairie Elementary School, Stoughton, WI Copyright © Reed Business Information, a division of Reed Elsevier Inc.

A little girl recounts her rainy-day adventure with pink cupcakes, which she ate and ate until she turned pink herself. “I’m Pinkerbelle!” she sings, crying tears of delight as she admires her raspberry-hued complexion. Her mom takes her straight to the doctor, who prescribes lots of green food. But she cannot resist another cupcake or two, and her delicate pink skin tone deepens to an angry red! Horrors. She proceeds to choke down everything green she can find (relish, brussels sprouts, grapes, even a cup of acid-green tea). Just as the formerly “pinkalicious” girl returns to normal, her little brother, now quite rosy, shouts “Pink-a-boo!” The digitally created artwork, featuring busy collage elements and big-headed, vacant-eyed figures, won’t win any awards, but the fun premise (and cotton-candy-hued, glitter-dusted jacket) will guarantee an audience. Pair this with David Shannon’s A Bad Case of Stripes (1998). GraceAnne DeCandidoCopyright © American Library Association. All rights reserved –This text refers to an alternate kindle_edition edition.

Reviews from Amazon users, collected at the time the book is getting published on UniedVRG. It can be related to shiping or paper quality instead of the book content:

⭐ I really just love this whole series. My 6-year-old daughter got motivated to read by this series. She made the leap from BOB books to decoding Pinkalicious books together to 5. In this story, Pinkalicious eats too many pink cupcakes and turns pink. Then, she sneaks a forbidden cupcake and turns red. The cure? Eat lots and lots of greens. The twist ending? Her sidekick little brother Peter is pink at the end of the book.The book jacket has glitter on it, and I hate glitter all over the house. I’ve found that laminating book jackets helps keep books new for a long time, and I’m particularly committed to this whe. There is glitter involved. Over a year (and many, many reads) later, the book looks new.

⭐ I love the Pinkalicious book series. This books was perfect as a gift for my 4 year old niece who was being a first time flower girl in my wedding. Like the story, she didn’t understand what that meant. She thought of it as Halloween and wanted to be a dinosaur (would have been memorable if I had allowed). Cute story that helps explain at the end a flower girl. Spot on with a child’s perception. Great addition to the series!

⭐ My daughter enjoyed this story! Pinkalicious was a funny character to her with all the color changing. She loves pink just like Pinkalicious so that resonated with her as well. I would buy more books from this series, as my daughter really enjoyed it (noticed how much the cover paper is already so wrinkled from her handling the book so much!)!

⭐ Got a picky little princess that won’t eat her greens? Come-hither to the tale of “Pinkalicious”, a sweet little ditty that literally illustrates “you are what you eat” when a stubborn and sneaky little girl gets in a heap of trouble, her overindulgence in sweets turning her into a pink nightmare.Pinkalicious (the title character) is a sprightly little girl who lives a very pink existence. With a room covered floor to ceiling in roseate shades and patterns (even the outside of her house is pink!), Pinkalicious delights one evening in her mother’s decision to make some cupcakes. Baked, frosted and topped with a brilliant crimson maraschino cherry, they are a bright and cheery confection that makes the mouth water.In her greed to eat as many cupcakes as she can, Pinkalicious comes to find the next morning that it is possible to have too much of a good thing. Peering in the mirror, she sees that her skin has become as pink as the icing on her cupcakes. At first, she delights in the change but when her rosy complexion starts to cause some major problems, she is given a strict order by her pediatrician to fill her diet with green food and completely refrain from eating anything pink.Of course, Pinkalicious is not fond of green foods (big surprise, eh?) and surrenders to temptation, eating more pink cupcakes and turning her skin lobster-red. In a panic, she finally follows the doctor’s prescription for green food and is restored to her former glory.Co-authored by siblings Victoria and Elizabeth Kann (with illustrations provided by the former), “Pinkalicious” is filled with brilliant shades of – you guessed it – PINK. Any girly-girl who loves frill, fuss and that delicate hue will delight in this book’s ultra-feminine palette, Kann’s illustrations spanning the wide spectrum with loads of fuschia, coral, salmon, magenta, mauve, scarlet, blush and powder pinks. Kann’s style is basic and slightly pixie-ish, her illustrations giving off an elementary feel which little girls can relate to while offering them a feast for the eyes as far as color concentration.Bottom line: “Pinkalicious” is a whimsical story to read to your “wee Pinkarella” (the Kanns’s puckish terminology) if you want to encourage them to eat nutritiously or just for fun. If you’re interested in more of what the Kann sisters have to offer, check out their aptly titled follow-up “Purplicious”.

⭐ I found this title on a book list I’d received of “100 Best Illustrated Children’s Books”. I owned or had read a good number of the books, but this was one I didn’t know. I made a list of books from that list to check out from the library, and this past week we got this one.Having a little boy, I assumed by the title that it would be more for girls. But I was wrong. It’s not gender-specific in any way. It’s just a fun story. And as a mom who tries to get her child to eat green vegetables, I really appreciated its subtle message. (He quotes the “you get what you get and you don’t get upset” to himself frequently as he does the “burped on Brussels sprouts” part and laughs and giggles. I love this book for this if no other reason: it delights my child.)This evening when my 4-year old son sat on the sofa and “read” this book to himself — almost completely word for word — I knew I had to get one for our home library. I was really surprised to see it had any low ratings at all. I don’t think it deserves that. It is for the children after all and my child loved it.

⭐ This is one of our favorites! The story is cute and encourages kids to eat healthy vegetables to help them stay healthy! My daughter loves this book and we’ve done fun crafts related to the book. We made paper cupcakes and decorated them with pink tissue paper and pink buttons and pink pompoms. We also made pinkalicious cupcakes and they we’re delicious! The book is well made and has held up to hours of reading!!!!

⭐ My son absolutely loves Pinkalicious! And his favorite episode is when Pinkalicious turns pink because of all the pink cupcakes she ate. I was so excited that there was a book inspired by the episode and that I was able to find it here at a much more reasonable price. New favorite book.

⭐ My sister is an English teacher and a mother of two kids. Well, one day when she and I were out shopping with my daughter (4 years), she saw a Pinkalicious shirt and asked my daughter if she likes the book and my daughter was clueless. My sister was appalled! Shortly after, she sent me a link to Pinkalicious on Amazon and told me I had to purchase it. I did end up buying it and my daughter loves the book! The colorful pictures and talking about cupcakes really grabbed her attention. So long story short, this is a great book and I’m sad I didn’t hear about it sooner!

⭐ The pacing of the story is good, the illustrations are great and my daughter (just turned 3) loves this book. She asks for it several times a week and loves to imitate the ‘very upset’ face. Because she loves it so, I read it to her whenever she asks…but I am forced to comment on it as we read it. The things I took issue with were:1.) the book protrays veggies as yucky/gross and were a nasty remedy to eating too many cupcakes2.) the child in the story was rather petulant and bratty3.) the child pretended to eat her veggies and after everyone was asleep snuck to the kitchen, cimbed up to the top of the fridge to sneak a cupcake her mother had already forbiddenWhen I read the story we have to talk about how silly girl is to think veggies are yucky and how this little girl does naughty things and should go on time out ’cause little kiddos are supposed to listen to their parents.If I had it to do over, I would not have bought the book but having bought I want to give it two stars as a parent but give it three ’cause my daughter does love it.

⭐ Delightful classic children’s book about a girl who turns pink from eating too many…well, you’ll find out. Clever plotline and absolutely stunning airbrush illustrations. Bought as a gift for our baby granddaughter.
