Pinkalicious has friends over for a campfire party. As they gaze up at the stars they discuss the constellations and what they see. Peter imagines that he sees a dragon and, lo and behold, they all have a new pinkatastic dragon friend!

My six-year-old enjoyed the illustrations. It was quite an easy read for her. Personally, I appreciated the message for children that it's okay to be scared sometimes. If you have an early reader that likes Pinkalicious, definitely give this one a try.

The word “visualize” should not be in a Level 1 I Can Read book.

I’m so torn with Pinkalicious. I have a total love / hate relationship with her. I love the colourful illustrations in this story. I also loved Gertie in this story. It will forever be my dream to have a pet dragon. 🐉 A pet dragon that is pink would be even better!!!! 💕

Pinkalicious, camping, AND a dragon? This book was never going to be anything but a hit with my students. Such a fun, heartfelt story. Definitely recommend for a quick, lighter read.

The little girl has her friends over for a campfire. They get a dragon to come by visualizing her. Then they do campfire stuff, like breathe fire and have s'mores.

I like this book because Pinkalicious is camping in her back yard, which is really fun!
