Pinkalicious loves pink more than anything in the word, one pink thing she loves most is pink cupcakes. Pinkalicious eats entirely too many pink cupcakes and when her parents warn her not too eat too many and she still does, she turns pink! When she turns pink she got very worried and the doctor told her no more pink, she is only allowed to eat green food until it gets better. Instead of listening to the doctor, Pinkalicious eats one more pink cupcake and this time it turns out very bad. Pinkalicious knows what she has to do in order to return to her normal self, but is she able to do it?
The theme that Kann portrayed in this book is about listening to adults. She does a great job in writing and showing the outcome of what happens when Pinkalicious goes against what the doctor and her parents told her to do. Mostly all children can relate to this book because there was probably a time in their life when they didn't listen to their parents, or a time where they didn't want to.
