Holm, J., Holm, M. (2006). Babymouse: Beach Babe. New York: Random House.
This pink book, and I mean in the way that every page including the front and back cover are shades of pink, is designed for the young feminine reader. She is an endearing heroine who daydreams and fantasizes about things like surfing and mermaids and then she actually gets to try surfing. Her visit to the beach includes the typical sunbathing, sand-castle building, and searching for seashells with a tag-along little brother. The book unfolds the relationship between the siblings and the resolution is sweet. (Grade 1 and up).
