Purplicious

De: Victoria Kann, Elizabeth Kann

Narrado por: Kathleen McInerney

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.

Purplicious

I find this story kind of annoying, but my girls (2 and 4) LOVE it - and they love the audible version. Thank You! Now I don't have to read it 5 times a day - I'm down to once.

We love pinkalicious!

Would you listen to Purplicious again? Why?

Most definitely! Very entertaining and pink is a favorite color of one of my girls.

What did you like best about this story?

That Pinkalicious finds out that she's not alone in her struggle of being what she perceives as "different".

What does Kathleen McInerney bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

The voices! She's an entertaining reader and when we read the books at home now, it's nice to have a "voice" for the characters

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

"pink is powerful" - my lover of pink repeats this each time she hears it

Any additional comments?

My only complaint about this book is the use of the word "sissy". I find it interesting that most parents try to teach their children not to call names, but then they learn it from their books and tv shows. After listening to this book, one of my daughters is now insulted when people refer to her as her sisters "sissie". I think writers should consider these things when adding those words to their stories.
