Children's Corner: Silverlicious

Silverlicious (Pinkalicious) Review: My almost 6 year old daughter has been a big fan of Pinkalicious since I bought the first one when she was 3. So when she started get wiggly teeth and I saw that Pinkalicious was dealing with the same thing; I bought it for her.

In typical Pinkalicious fashion she can't lose her tooth in a normal way. You see, immediately after losing her tooth Pinkalicious no longer enjoys sweets! For Shame!! So she declares that she lost her sweet tooth.

So Pinkalicious decides to write a letter to the Tooth Fairy to get this situation resolved. Instead of having the Tooth Fairy respond she gets Carlos Cupid, Edgar Easter Bunny and Elf #351. They each try to restore her sweet tooth but to no avail.

When she finally does get a response from the Tooth Fairy, she gets the requisite coin but also a note that teaches Pinkalicious a valuable lesson.

What I love about these books is that each of them teaches kids a valuable lesson. Sometimes one us parents could be reminded of as well.

This is the fourth hardcover is a well loved series but there are all sorts of subsequent books that also feature this sassy girl. There is also a children's muscial based on the first book as well.

These are books that we come back to again and again. These are books that will be kept for many years to come.

To learn more about the author and the books Think Pinkalicious.

We are big Pinkalicious fans in our house too, but haven't progressed to Silverlicious yet as wiggly teeth are a few years off in our house. But I look forward to reading it then...
