Pinkalicious and the Perfect Present

This book is about Pinkalicious and the lesson she learns about presents. She and her mom were riding their bikes when they saw a yard sale. They stop to look. Two of her friends show up at the same sale and they play with the things being sold. They have a lot of fun. Pinkalicious’s mom gives her two dollars to buy anything that she wants. After looking around for a while she doesn’t find anything interesting. Then she comes up with an idea: look for things that are pink. She finds a lot of pink things at the sale that she wants. Then she finds a pink music box that plays a song that her mom really likes. She buys that instead of anything for herself and surprises her mom with the music box later. At the end, she realizes that sometimes the best presents are the ones you give.

I liked the book because the moral of the story was good. This book is for readers at level 1 so would be good for beginning readers. Older kids wouldn’t like this book as much.
