Product Description
It's purple Pinkalicious! Pinkalicious loves the color pink, but all the girls at school like black. They tease her, saying that pink stinks and pink is for babies. But Pinkalicious doesn't think so…that is, until her friends stop playing with her. Now Pinkalicious has a case of the blues. But could she ever turn her back on her favorite color? In the follow-up to the bestselling Pinkalicious, a young girl remains true to herself and discovers that pink isn't only a pretty color, but also a powerful one.

 Reviewers stop your own negativity August 6, 2008
Tricia (California)
I think the reviewers who are really down on this book may have too much negativity in themselves if all they see is a downer. If you don't think this is appropriate for young kids then you need to be more involved in your childs school. Being a room mom this kind of pressure does exist in Kinder and yes, preschool. I feel it sets a good example of a little girl who loves something and takes the time to think about it, even while others tell her to abandon her beloved color, she discovers that not everyone needs to like the same thing. That is what I teach my children, that everyone is independant and that just because someone else may not like what you like, that is ok. I want my kids to know that they have the right and freedom to choose. As with everything, parents need to guide their kids through the negative which is everywhere and to show them the positive. If we sheild them and only give them the positive then they will have a rude awakening when entering the world. I love books that allow me to have a discussion with my kids and to turn bad into good. We need to focus more and stop sugar coating society. Look at the books we read when we were young. Disney where mom gets killed off and witches who eat kids. Did that scar us, No. Books today actually are better because they give life lessons and choices of good vs. bad. Please lighten up. This is a good book.
