Little Pink Pup

Little Pink Pup
by Johanna Kirby
5/5 Stars
Reviewer: Dawn


Summary:
When Pink was born, he was the runt of the litter. His piglet siblings were much larger and pushed him out of the way to get food. He was so small that the Kirby family did not think he would survive. So, they brought him into their home, where he encountered Tink, the family’s pet dachshund. Tink just had her own litter of puppies and when she saw Pink, she immediately welcomed him into her family and nursed him back to health

Review:
This is such a wonderful, heartwarming story. I’m so glad that Johanna Kirby chose to turn Pink and Tink’s story into a children’s picture book. Written in clear, simple text, this story is inviting for beginning readers. The full-color photos were the perfect choice for illustrating this non-fiction tale that will definitely appeal to a wide audience. This book is perfect for teaching children about accepting people who are different.
