"A must." -- Kidsreads.com

"A powerful little story for school-age kids that lends itself to some pretty big ideas....An interesting and still-timely look at gender, society, and the expectations parents put on their own children. A good addition to bookshelves." -- Mom Read It

"CANDY PINK by Adela Turin and illustrated by Nella Bosnia is unlike any children's book that I've read in recent memory... maybe ever.....a terrific way to introduce gender issues to you child....It explores feelings of being different and even isolated as well as how hard it is sometimes to just be yourself. I think the many positive messages in this picture book about acceptance, tolerance, and individuality are important to share with children in today's society. Highly recommended!" -- Booking Mama
"An excellent children's book with a message for every person."
