Pinkalicious by Victoria Kann and Elizabeth Kann, has been a big hit at our house since we bought it at a Scholastic book fair last year. My daughter likes to read it over and over, so we did a little interview about it together.

And click here to make your own pinkalicious cupcakes!

me: What happens in the book?

ser: A girl turns pink.

me: How does she turn pink?

ser: She ate too much cupcakes.

me: What color were the cupcakes, were they green?

ser (smiling): Pink!

me: Is it a bad thing that she turns pink?

ser: Yes.

me: Why?

ser: Because Dr. Wink said.

me: Who is Dr. Wink?

ser: Pinkalicious’s doctor.

me: Does she stay pink forever?

ser: Nope.

me: Why do you like Pinkalicious?

ser: Because I kinda like pink and she turns pink.

me: Do you wish you could eat a cupcake like that?

ser: Mm-hm.

   Too cute! Maybe you should find a copy of “Chocolate Fever” for the kids, too.

   Too cute! My daughter almost got that one at the book fair last year, she picked A Case of the Stripes instead.

   We were just reading this yesterday! Great minds think alike:) Did you know they also have a Purplelicious and a Goldalicious? But the Pink is the best. Adorable pictures!

    I agree! My kids love this book and we have purplicioius and goldalicious as well. Another favorite of ours with the same storyline is “Chololatina”.

    I’ve tried to stay away from this book because I’m drowning in Pink, but this review makes me rethink the embargo….
