Funny and with a little note to Eat Your Greens

Reviewed in the United States on February 12, 2019

Verified Purchase

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.

Facetious and Feminine

Reviewed in the United States on December 2, 2008

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".

Boys Like Pink Too

Reviewed in the United States on November 4, 2011

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.

Great book

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!!!!

Great flower girl gift and good addition to the series!

Reviewed in the United States on August 10, 2020

Verified Purchase

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 child loves Pinkalicious. Very cute, funny story about a girl who just wants to eat pink cupcakes.
(Bought secondhand from a thrift store. It arrived in very good condition with no sign of wear except a small crease in the back cover!)

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!)!

This book is my 3yo current favorite. We listened to it as an audio book from the library and loved it so much we had to buy it. I love that there are several Pinkalicious books that my kiddo will get to enjoy.

This is a fun book. Its American and that is obvious from some of the wording in the book, but the story is cute and fun with a great ending. Our 4 year old loves it. Good quality pages and a nice bed time story.

Pink fun

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on October 18, 2010

Verified Purchase

This is my 4-year old daughter's favourite book. She knows it off by heart. It was bought as a holiday treat because she liked the cover. I wasn't expecting much of it - I thought it was just trading on little girls' love of all things pink, but was pleasantly surprised. It is funny, witty and well written and I love the retro feel of the illustrations. We already have the rest of the series lined up for birthday and Christmas presents.
