Characters: Pinkalicious (a little girl), her friends, Molly, Rose, and Allison, and her parents and brother.
Setting: Pinkalicious’s home
Theme: Helping friends through new events
Genre: Picture book
Golden quote (optional): “If I was ruler, we’d eat dessert first!”
Summary: A little girl named
Audience: Pre-school through lower elementary ages
Curriculum ties: Social studies, friendships
Awards (optional):
Personal response: This book with Pinkalicious is but one in a series of cute books aimed at small children. The illustrations are well done with out being too complicated. Pinkalicious’s attitude is always positive and I like the way the girls band together to help Allison get through her first sleep-over. Even with a magical dragon, the theme is not lost. As a parent, this was a situation I dealt with several times with my own daughter. She either did not want to be away from home or her friends were unsure about a slumber party at our house.

Pinkalicious wants to have a slumber party and invites her friends Molly, Rose, and Allison. The girls arrive in party dresses and their sleeping bags are the same color as their dresses. However, Allison is very apprehensive about staying for the “sleep-over.” Pinkalicious, Molly, and Rose set forth to reassure her that everything will be fine. Pinkalicious’s parents prepare a fit-for-a-Princess meal and the girls make princess themed crafts. When it is time to go to bed, the girls reassure Allison that she will be fine and a magical, protective dragon appears and the girls go to sleep.Audience: Pre-school through lower elementary ages

challenge young readers just enough with short sentences and a few complex vocabulary words, which can be decipher with the help of context clues and illustrations. I liked the idea of the story -- helping a friend out and being creative in doing so, but somehow it fell a little flat. This is not a bad book, just not one I'm rushing out to recommend. Show Less
