Synopsis

In this follow-up to the New York Times bestselling Pinkalicious, a young girl remains true to herself and discovers that pink isn't only a pretty color, but also a powerful one.While everyone knows Pinkalicious’s favorite color is pink, the bullies at her new school don’t agree. All the girls are wearing black, painting in black, and making fun of Pinkalicious for loving pink. “Pink is for babies and stinks!” they tell her. Pinkalicious feels left out until she learns that pink can be a powerful color, and that the most important thing is to be yourself. Pinkalicious stars in five more picture books—Pinkalicious, Goldilicious, Silverlicious, Emeraldalicious, and Aqualicious—as well as I Can Reads, doodle books, and more.

Goodreads review by Heather K (dentist in my spare time) on September 27, 2014

Reviewed by my 5 year old *Audiobook edition* "Pinkalicious was at school and all the girls liked black. I loved the best part when she had a purple cake and when she used a pink crayon with blue crayons and it made purple. And she said 'Pink is powerful.' The other girls really did like black."......more

Nope 🤣 Mention on like last page basically? And unchecked bullying by a group of girls over favorite color. Yeah…......more

Goodreads review by Kristen on January 05, 2018

Loved how Pinkalicious found a friend despite all the girls saying "pink is for babies." Great for showing children how to develop their own interests and likes, not following the crowd.......more
