About this audiobook
This enchanting follow-up to the New York Times bestselling Pinkalicicous and Purplicious brings to life a new and magical character: Pinkalicious's pet unicorn!
With heaps of creativity and a touch of sparkle, Goldilicious glows—from horn to toe.
Being Pinkalicious is pinkatastic, especially when she's accompanied by her unicorn, Goldilicious. Goldie is a roller-skating, kite-flying, high-jumping unicorn who will protect Pinkalicious from the silly wizardry of her little brother, Peter.
Together, Pinkalicious and Goldilicious can conquer anything!

Reviews for Goldilicious

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5These books are growing on my but I still find Pinkalicious to be a whinny brat (at least to her parents). Goldilicious is her imaginary unicorn who she has grand adventures with. I can start to see where this series would sprout continuations and a tv series. Thank goodness I don’t have to watch it.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Yet another fun and funny children's book by Kann. Pinkalicious reminds me SO much of my daughter.
- Rating: 1 out of 5 stars1/5That pink-loving little girl, whose story began in the eponymous Pinkalicious, and then continued in Purplicious, returns in this third picture-book devoted to her (rather bratty) adventures. This time, the theme is pretend play, and Pinkalicious enjoys a day of make believe with her imaginary friend, Goldilicious the unicorn. Pinkalicious' brother Peter also gets in on the action, kidnapping the unicorn, who escapes and is transformed into a mermaid (sort of). Despite these contretemps, at the end of the day Pinkalicious discovers that her friend is waiting for her at bedtime...Like its predecessors, Goldilicious is a hot mess: poorly written, poorly illustrated, and poorly thought out. I continue to find Victoria Kann's artwork flat and unappealing, and her heroine intensely unlikable. While I understand that young children don't always exhibit the best behavior, I find it odd that Pinkalicious' lack of respect for her elders (as in previous stories, she is rude to her parents here) and for her home (she makes a mess, playing in the living room) is never really addressed in the story. This sort of thing - issues going unresolved in the story - seems quite common in these books. As mentioned in previous reviews, I am reading this entire series for a work-related project, otherwise I probably wouldn't have continued past the initial title, given how unimpressed I was with it. That said, I think if anything the quality of storytelling has decreased, as I've read through subsequent books. There are infinitely better stories out there about girls and unicorns - try Uni the Unicorn, for starters - and it is to such titles that I would direct readers, rather than to these books. Not recommended.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5A cute story book where this time Pinkalicious and her brother and her imaginary unicorn have an adventure. Fun and pretty illustrations.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Summary:This story is one, in a series of Pinkalicious picture books, of the main heroine's imaginary pet unicorn, Goldilicious. She shares a few adventures with "Goldi" and her brother, including a wizard battle, tea party, taken hostage by pirates, and swimming with mermaids. The child spends an amazing day of imagination before bedtime. Personal Reaction:When I was growing up as a younger sibling, I had my fair share of conflict with my older brother. I had a few imaginary friends that helped me escape reality and I can relate to the grandeur of the story. Future Classroom Ideas:1. I can ask the class to write or share a story about their experiences with imaginary friends and/or older brothers/sisters.2. I could set up an etiquette 'tea party' in order to explain how to act properly in at the table.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5The book is great for younger children. It lets their imagination run wild. The words that are used can be read by lower elementary students. Their are some make believe words.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Another book in a wonderful series; this time Pinkalicious has a very best friend that so happens to be an imaginary horse. She spends all her time with her imaginary friend. Pinkalicious gets a little upset because no one else could see her and she thinks Goldilicious ran away. In the classroom: listening skills, story time, how to deal with imaginary friends
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5A little has an imaginary unicorn friend. The little girl, her unicorn, and her brother play games, have a tea party, and go on adventures. When the little girl's unicorn leaves to go on an adventure without her, she gets upset. Before she goes to sleep, her unicorn comes back and lets the little girl know that she will always be there for her.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Goldilicious by Victoria KannThis picture book brings back Pinkalicious in a whole new adventure. Pinkalicious has a new friend that only she can see. The new friend is a unicorn named Goldilicious, Goldie for short. The book goes through and tells about all of the things Goldie and Pinkalicious do together. I love this story for young children. There are many children who have imaginary friends and it is great to have a story where a child there age does too. I think a unicorn is a perfect choice of imaginary friend for Pinkalicious.I would use this story with Pre-K and Kindergarteners. I would discuss some characters that are real and some that we get to imagine. I would read the story and ask the students to draw what their imaginary friend would look like and then come tell me about it so I can write down what it is.
- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5I didn't care for this book. I was drawn to the cover because of the glitter on the cover and the bright graphics. It's the story of one girl's imaginary unicorn and the imaginary play she has with her brother and the unicorn. I just didn't really like the emphasis on being a princess and maybe just didn't connect to the character. I see this as a general reading book for circle or quiet reading time.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5This book is fun to read because Kann makes up new words (pinktastic) that are fun to say and experience. the main character has an adventure with her brother that involves pirates, treasure and a missing unicorn.
