From Kirkus Indie Reviews... ..".the text is simple but not overly
so, striking a balance between being manageable and challenging for
young readers. The layouts' variety makes for a visually appealing
presentation, and the pink capital letters used to begin each page
fit perfectly with the overall theme. The book's lesson is a good
one, teaching children that sometimes they need to open their minds
to the unexpected...the art is full of appealing, cheerful colors,
and the cover illustration is brilliant..." This book is all about
what little girls love Color Happiness Puppies The King and Queen
love to indulge their Princess, but in wanting to please her, they
do not realize the consequences of their over-indulgence. In the
end, the greatest gift to a parent is seeing a child grow to
understand that real love transcends all material things. When the
new baby girl arrives at the Palace, her mother, the Queen, dresses
her all in pink. Before long, however, the Princess is totally
smitten with the color. Her parents soon find it increasingly
difficult to fulfill her pink fantasies. A kind witch appears,
first with gifts of pink, and then with a gift that breaks the
spell. This story and its drawings were meant to evoke an old-world
feel. The pictures, done in colored pencil, were meant to be soft
and child-like, so that a child could more readily identify with
the images. The scenes portray real visits to castles, villages,
and vast open meadows. Joni's recollections of her travels and her
research on all things medieval produced the end result seen here
in this, our first picture-book for children. The book is written
for 3 through 8 years of age...the earlier age for being read to,
and the older age, of course, for actual readers.
