Book Description
for Pink Is for Blobfish by Jess Keating and David DeGrand
From the Publisher
Pinkalicious meets National Geographic in this nonfiction picture book introducing the weirdest, wildest, pinkest critters in the animal kingdom!
Some people think pink is a pretty color. A fluffy, sparkly, princess-y color. But it's so much more.
Sure, pink is the color of princesses and bubblegum, but it's also the color of monster slugs and poisonous insects. Not to mention ultra-intelligent dolphins, naked mole rats and bizarre, bloated blobfish.
Isn't it about time to rethink pink?
Slip on your rose-colored glasses and take a walk on the wild side with zoologist Jess Keating, author of How to Outrun a Crocodile When Your Shoes Are Untied, and cartoonist David DeGrand.
A New York Public Library Best Book for Kids, 2016
"The 2016 Ambassador to Young People’s Science and Nature books is unquestionably the blobfish." —Shelftalker
"Readers will never look at pink the same way." —Publishers Weekly
