“I can’t cope with so much cuteness.” – Carola Schmidt, bestselling children’s author and science writer
My Review
This book is a delightful celebration of ourselves and how it is great to be different, rather than trying to fit ourselves into a cookie-cutter mold.
Princess Fluffy has long white locks that would be the envy of many, except she doesn’t like them. Why? Because she’s part of the royal family, and the rest of her relatives tell her that only short, colored fur is okay for a royal. So Princess Fluffy starts to hate her long fur and has the gardener cut it short. Then she eats pink shoes and flowers. She even scarfs down a whole pink bicycle in an attempt to turn her fur pink! But even after eating pink stuff to bursting point, her fur only gets a pink tinge. She is so frustrated that she can’t fit in. The one advantage is she can play with the regular kids in the Kingdom because they don’t know she’s royalty.
Then a blizzard hits the Kingdom, and the only one who is camouflaged in the snow is Princess Fluffy. Not only does she stop the Kingdom from being attacked by the monster eagles, the Pooflies, but she also grabs some firewood and thus helps to heat the royal palace until the blizzard is over. Now that Princess Fluffy has saved the day due to her white fur blending into the snow, the royal family celebrates her and accepts her different fur type. At last, Princess Fluffy finds the acceptance she has always craved.
This is an uplifting story about learning to love yourself, instead of changing who you are, which kids will love. The illustrations are also super cute and and I guarantee Princess Fluffy will win a place in your heart!

It is great to be different. I want to embrace this and live this way rather than trying to fit into society. Thank you for the book introduction.
Seems like a great book for my little niece, I will gift it to her for her birthday. Thanks for sharing!

It really does sound like a lovely children’s book. I think my kids are too old for it now but one I would have read to them when they were younger
This sounds like a great message for the age group the book is targetting! Thank you for sharing as I had not heard of Princess Fluffy Pumpkin Eats Pink before.
