Review

This is an early reader story about the character Pinkalicious. It would be appropriate for a child learning to read and it is labeled as being in guided reading level J. Pinkalicious has been chosen to be principal for a day at her school and she is very excited at the prospect. Unfortunately she wakes up on the special day and has a fever and must stay at home. So Pinkalicious spends her day in bed getting more sleep, reading, coloring and having elderberry tea. A child could relate to being home sick and having a similar experience.

Overall Book Score: very good
