Jessica Minnoia's Reviews > Pinkalicious

This is a fantasy children's picture book about a little girl who eats too many pink cupcakes and turns pink. She is advised to eat lots of green food from the doctor to return to normal. Although reluctant, she follows the doctor's advice and then returns to normal. However, her brother ends up eating the cupcakes and turning pink as well.
This book uses inventive language such as "Pinkalicious" and "Pink-a-boo." The author also makes good use of descriptive language when describing the main character eating the green food (for example says "burped up brussel sprouts."
I would use this book as a read aloud for a K-2 class and have available as an independent reader for the same age ranges.
