Emeraldalicious (Pinkalicious)

by Victoria Kann

When Pinkalicious and Peter decide to visit their favorite park, they find that it's no longer their favorite place—the park is now filled with stinky trash! Pinkalicious has an idea and makes an extra-special wand out of a stick and some flowers. Now whenever Pinkalicious makes a wish, adds a little love, and recites a pinkatastic rhyme, something amazing happens: Everything turns greenerrific!

Join Pinkalicious as she turns an ordinary place into an Emeraldalicious world! Kids will love this colorful picture book with a message about doing our part to keep our world clean and beautiful.

We are really loving the character of Pinkalicious and this time we get to have her brother Pet along for the adventure as well. As the duo journeys to their favorite park and picnic spot instead they find a place filled with garbage, but using a little nature and the magic of love they have a fun adventure and come to a new realization of just how powerful a little nature and love can be. A good leeway into a discussion on replanting and bringing back the green of the Earth from the damage that trash can leave. The pictures are so vivid and fun. I know Pinkalicious is a girl's character, but with this one I'd easily recommend it for a boy's read as well.

*Thanks to HarperCollins for providing a copy for review.*
