Pinkalicious visits the beach with Peter and meets her friends the Merminnies. Here, Aqua introduces them to Splash, who can do all kinds of tricks. Splash has the help of a turtle and a whale named Tiny, but one trick leaves him stuck in the seaweed. He needs help getting out and the turtles make a path for Pinkalicious and Peter. What a fun day at the beach!

PINKALICIOUS AND THE MERMINNIES is about friendship and a fun day at the beach. I like that merminnies are miniature mermaids. They're so cute! Splash is comical with his tricks since he messes up but pretends nothing happens. Emerging readers will enjoy this fun summer read with their favorite character, Pinkalicious. The sentences are short and easy for new readers to follow and understand.


Final Verdict: I would recommend this to emerging readers who like summer reads, beach days, mermaids, water fun, and Pinkalicious.
