Pink is for Blobfish

Reach for this book when your child starts feeling restricted by social 'rules' regarding what is cool, tough, or pretty. It is the perfect antidote to the idea that the color pink is only for delicate things or certain people. Through a fascinating tour of the natural world, Jess Keating introduces creatures like the terrifying Pink Fairy Armadillo and the prehistoric-looking Blobfish to prove that pink can be weird, wild, and even dangerous. This book is a brilliant tool for building self-confidence and dismantling stereotypes by using scientific facts. It speaks to children aged 5 to 9 who might feel 'different' or who are navigating the social pressures of gendered colors. By shifting the focus from fashion to biology, it encourages kids to embrace their own unique traits, no matter how unconventional they may seem. It is a celebratory, humorous, and educational choice for any home library.
